DESCRIPTION:One of the use-cases of interest in future wireless networks is
  Internet-of-vehicles (IoV). Here\, IoV refers to two different functional
 ities\, namely\, serving the in-vehicle users and supporting the connected
 -vehicle functionalities\, where both can be well provided by the transcei
 vers installed on top of the vehicles. Such dual functionality of the on-v
 ehicle transceivers\, however\, implies strict rate and reliability requir
 ements\, for which one may need to utilize large bandwidths/beamforming\, 
 acquire updated channel state information and avoid blockages. In this web
 inar\, we present the recently proposed concept of predictor antennas (PAs
 ) as an efficient technique to improve the performance of such IoV links. 
 Particularly\, we introduce the concept and the potentials/challenges of P
 A systems. Moreover\, summarizing the initial field trials for PA systems 
 and the 3GPP attempts on (moving) relays\, we compare the performance of d
 ifferent PA and non-PA methods for vehicle communications in both urban an
 d rural areas with the PA setup backhauled through terrestrial or satellit
 e technology\, respectively. As we show\, a dedicated PA deployment has th
 e potential to improve the performance of IoV networks.\n\nVirtual: https:
