Towards 6G-enabled Vehicle-to-Everything: Extreme Connectivity and Intelligence
Vehicle-to-everything (V2X) has developed rapidly over the past decades. In the imminent era of 6G communications, unprecedented advancements will reshape our technological landscape and redefine the boundaries of the digital experience. While the specific details of 6G-enabled V2X networks are still under exploration, there is a consensus that it will enable two main features: ubiquitous communications via satellite-terrestrial integrated networks and intelligent connections tailored for emerging applications, notably autonomous vehicles. In this talk, we will first discuss extended use cases and potential network architectures in 6G. We will then focus on one case study, AI-enabled connected autonomous driving to support one of the representative 6G use cases. The case study focuses on enhancing resource scheduling for timely and reliable edge computing in autonomous driving. We will highlight the indispensable role of AI in network management, aiming to provide seamless connectivity and meet diverse service demands in the 6G era.
