“…Note that fuel cell vehicles (FCVs) are categorized in Cluster 2 (Endo, 2007) because the studies are based on regional economic analysis with the aim of discussing market penetration in a specific area (Dodds and Ekins, 2014). ICT infrastructure for vehicles such as intelligent transport systems (ITS) is discussed in Cluster 1 (Cheng et al, 2014;Mondragon et al, 2015) because of its relation with ICT.…”

The design of energy systems has become an issue of worldwide interest. A single optimal energy system cannot be suggested because the availability of infrastructure and resources, and the acceptability of the system should be discussed locally with the involvement of all related stakeholders. A simulation-based approach is strongly needed for such a purpose. In this paper, the current major trends are reviewed on research activities related to smart energy systems. First, a bibliometric analysis of academic papers was conducted with the aim of visualizing clusters that indicate the hot topics attributable to smart energy systems. Considering the extracted research topics and representative references that are the core of each cluster, possible simulation-based approaches for the design of smart energy system are schematically structured on the basis of social, economic, and technological aspects. Through this study, the framework needed for the design of smart energy systems is characterized with simulation-based socioeconomic and technological analyses.

“…Travel directions can be issued directly through virtual infrastructure, leading to a much more efficient and potentially congestion free transportation system. • Energy aspects [39][40][41][42]-VANETs will enable a much more sustainable transportation system. With real-time information from VANETs, together with the fusion methods and intelligent decision modules in vehicles, inefficient driving behaviour can be avoided.…”

Current transportation systems face great challenges due to the increasing mobility. Traffic accidents, congestion, air pollution, etc., are all calling for new methods to improve the transportation system. With the US legislation in progress over vehicle communications and EU's finalization of the basic set of standards over cooperative intelligent transportation systems (C-ITS), vehicular ad hoc network (VANET) based applications are expected to address those challenges and provide solutions for a safer, more efficient and sustainable future intelligent transportation systems (ITS). In this chapter, transportation challenges are firstly summarized in respect of safety, efficiency, environmental threat, etc. A brief introduction of the VANET is discussed along with state of the art of VANET-based applications. Based on the current progress and the development trend of VANET, a number of new features of future VANET are identified, together with a set of potential future ITS applications. The on-going research and field operational test projects, which are the major enabling efforts for the future VANET-based C-ITS, are presented. The chapter is of great interest to readers working within ITS for current development status and future trend within the C-ITS area. It is also of interest to general public for an overview of the VANET enabled future transportation system.

“…The objective of green communications is to improve energy efficiency of radio systems, which include traditional cellular networks and vehicular networks. In addition, vehicle electrification has been recognized as an emerging trend induced by the forthcoming smart grid [14]. With the penetration of purely electric-powered or hybrid electric vehicles, energy saving is expected to be a much more essential issue in connected vehicle technologies in near future.…”

Abstract-This work investigates a robust energy-efficient solution for multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) transmissions in cognitive vehicular networks. Our goal is to design an optimal MIMO beamforming for secondary users (SUs) considering imperfect interference channel state information (CSI). Specifically, we optimize the energy efficiency (EE) of SUs, given that the transmission power constraint, the robust interference power constraint and the minimum transmission rate are satisfied. To solve the optimization problem, we first characterize the uncertainty of CSI by bounding it in a Frobenius-norm-based region and then equivalently convert the robust interference constraint to a linear matrix inequality. Furthermore, a feasible ascent direction approach is proposed to reduce the optimization problem into a sequential linearly constrained semi-definite program, which leads to a distributed iterative optimization algorithm for deriving the robust and optimal beamforming. The feasibility and convergence of the proposed algorithm is theoretically validated, and the final experimental results are also supplemented to show the strength of the proposed algorithm over some conventional schemes in terms of the achieved EE performance and robustness.
