Final Programme 2 â 5 June 2013 Dresden, Germany - ieeevtc.org

The 77 th IEEE 

Vehicular Technology Conference 

Final Programme 

2 – 5 June 2013 

Dresden, Germany

Dear Colleagues, 

On behalf of the Organizing Committee and as a 

proud resident of Dresden, it is my pleasure to 

welcome you to the 77th IEEE Vehicular 

Technology Conference (VTC) 2013 Spring in this 

beautiful city in Germany; a distinguished place 

where history meets modernism, technology meets 

art and industry meets academia. Dresden has 

become famous for the successful collaboration 

between all these aspects of our lives, in particular 

the close and innovative partnership between 

industry and research. This concept of working 

together has supported the success story of the 

largest micro- and organic electronics hub in 

Europe and the 5th largest in the world. 

Not least because I do believe that it is exactly this 

approach that is reflected in the success of the 

VTC, the Technische Universität Dresden (TUD) 

has been chosen as local organizer for the 

VTC2013-Spring and I am delighted to represent 

the university through my position as General 

Chair. In June 2012, the University had been 

granted the status of a ’University of Excellence’ as 

one of only 11 higher education institutions with 

that title in Germany. The TUD was granted the 

title as an elite research institution for its 

institutional strategy, its two clusters of excellence 

as well as one Graduate School. 

It is my personal belief that we have created a 

unique event, filled with international delegates that 

are passionate about the continuous development of 

wireless communications and vehicular technology 

and that are looking forward to innovate, to create 

and to shape the mobile world of tomorrow. It is at 

conferences such as the VTC where new ideas are 

thought out and visions started, possibilities 

investigated and challenges discussed. The 

conference venue in downtown Dresden is a perfect 

place to start enjoying the city, which is why we 

Welcome from the General Chair 

decided to have the welcome reception at this 

location in order to savor the beautiful silhouette of 

Dresden, while having fruitful discussions. 

The other highlight of VTC2013-Spring will be, 

without any doubts, the banquet in Volkswagen’s 

“Die Gläserne Manufaktur”. Surrounded by 

production lines, you will enjoy German food and 

maybe more important, the drink that Germany is 

most famous for – beer. Additionally, you will not 

only see the cars production through a window – 

there will be guided tours available through the 

factory during the banquet evening. 

The VTC2013-Spring is co-located with the 6th 

International Symposium on Wireless Vehicular 

Communications (WiVeC2013). This event 

focusses on the realization of wireless vehicular 

communications, including Vehicle-to-Vehicle 

(V2V), implications on road safety and transport 

efficiency. The international growth of research 

programs in this area reflects the society’s demand 

for such developments and the WiVeC2013 will 

present a platform to share results of research 

activities as well as plans for future goals. The 

WiVeC2013 takes place from 2nd to 3rd June 2013 

and I would like to welcome these delegates as 

well. 

The IEEE Vehicular Technology Society (VTS) has 

established a successful format of the VTCs and I 

think we can continue the tradition of very 

worthwhile events that serve as a platform for 

researchers and industry representatives. I sincerely 

welcome you to Dresden, and I invite you to enjoy 

the city and to start your next visions – I look 

forward to welcoming you in person here in 

Germany, to the IEEE VTC2013-Spring. 

Gerhard Fettweis, 

General Chairman, IEEE VTC2013 Spring

Welcome To VTC 2013 Spring! 

On behalf of the Technical Program Committee, we 

would like to welcome you to the beautiful City of 

Dresden and to IEEE VTC 2013 Spring. 

This year IEEE VTC Spring has been supported by 

29 track chairs who organized the review of 860 

paper submissions with about 2,900 reviews 

performed by performed by more than 1500 

reviewers and almost 600 TPC members, at least 

three for each paper. The track chairs then carefully 

analysed the results to select the best papers for 

presentation at the conference. The immense efforts 

and passion of the technical committee allow us to 

present to you a high quality and interesting 

program. We would like to thank all members of 

the technical committee for their strong support. 

The IEEE Vehicular Technology Conference has 

always been an important place to interact with 

industry and academic leaders alike. Attendees are 

able to experience a diverse mix of hot topics at the

Making the WorldSafe: The 5G Opportunity 

Len Pagano Founder of Safe America Foundation 

The Safe America Foundation, a non-profit located in the southern United States, and its WorldSafe initiative 

focus on emerging health and safety issues that present societal challenges and concerns both nationally and 

globally. In his presentation, Mr. Pagano, Safe America Founder, President and Chief Executive Officer, will 

discuss the social benefits of 5G, how personal information is used by the Private Sector and how it can be 

used to do harm; health and safety issues related to 5G and what role Safe America and WorldSafe will have, 

in addressing the challenges of 5G. The presentation will define the need for a Global Task Force and will 

identify Safe America's plan to be a force in mitigating the potential challenges and risks of this new 

generation of wireless communication. 

Len Pagano is a ‘social entrepreneur’ who has spent over 30 

years developing communication programs that address key 

issues across North America. 

As President, CEO and founder of Safe America, Mr. Pagano 

launched the 501(c) 3 organization with a $1 million grant 

from the Travelers Insurance Foundation. 

In its early days, Safe America focused on highway safety 

issues with Operation Baby Buckle, a child protection program 

that has distributed over 150,000 infant/child car seats to 

disadvantaged families across the United States. 

Mr. Pagano then organized a ‘Safe Team Coalition’ that was 

recognized by General Motors (GM) for its work. Innovative 

safety education programs followed which addressed emerging 

issues. These included initiatives in teen driver education, 

water safety, cyber-safety, homeland security, youth safety and 

disaster readiness. 

Through Len’s leadership, the Safe America Foundation has 

developed educational and practical safety and preparedness 

programs for businesses and communities. These include safety 

product distribution, national youth programming, international 

travel security, and advocating that non-profit organizations 

screen volunteers (to avoid predatory activities by adults). His 

accomplishments include raising over $30 million for injury 

prevention initiatives and engaging organizations including

Enabling the Wireless Cloud through Software-Defined Networking 

Andrea Goldsmith Professor of EE at Stanford University 

The wireless industry is at a tipping point. Cellular networks are struggling to keep up with the explosive 

demand for data. While the upgrade to LTE has boosted cellular performance somewhat, these 

improvements are not sufficient to meet expected demand given the limited availability of licensed spectrum. 

Small cells will be the dominant mechanism to boost capacity of cellular networks, but they introduce 

challenges of their own, including interference management between macro and small cells as well as the 

need for self-configuration. In addition to addressing the spectrum crunch through small cells, the unlicensed 


spectrum must also be tapped via WiFi. However, WiFi networks suffer from unmanaged interference, 

unreliable performance, and poor quality-of-experience for the end user. The solution to all these challenges 

is software-defined wireless networking, whereby cheap wireless hardware (e.g. small cells and WiFi access 

points) are extensively deployed, with cloud-based software dynamically optimizing the overall network 

performance and providing intelligent seamless mobility between WiFi and LTE networks. We will discuss 

the vision of this wireless cloud, how it is enabled by software-defined wireless networking, and some of the 

challenges associated with making this vision a reality. 

Andrea Goldsmith is the Stephen Harris professor in the 

School of Engineering and a professor of Electrical 

Engineering at Stanford University. She was previously on the 

faculty of Electrical Engineering at Caltech. She co-founded 

Accelera, Inc., which develops software-defined wireless 

network technology, and Quantenna Communications Inc., 

which develops high-performance WiFi chipsets. She has 

previously held industry positions at Maxim Technologies, 

Memorylink Corporation, and AT&T Bell Laboratories. Dr. 

Goldsmith is a Fellow of the IEEE and of Stanford, and she has 

received several awards for her work, including the IEEE 

Communications Society and Information Theory Society joint 

paper award, the National Academy of Engineering Gilbreth 

Lecture Award, the IEEE Wireless Communications Technical

Looking Ahead to 100 Years – Platform Engineering 

James Joseph Truchard Co-Founder, President and CEO of National Instruments 

Each new generation of wireless communication technology sets new benchmarks for size, power, data 

bandwidth and cost. These advancements not only increase the availability of wireless communication to a 

broader audience but also networks and network capacity must also evolve to meet the rising demand for 

data. The ubiquity of wireless communications further creates opportunities to apply these newly accessible 

and capable technologies to new applications and also to enable previously “mute” devices. Our 

interconnected world now extends beyond people to people communication. Machines can communicate 

autonomously to other machines such as appliances, electrical fixtures and even automobiles in a number of 

different ways. As the communication devices, applications and systems evolve, inevitably design 

complexity increases. Design approaches that embrace software re-configurability with an accelerated path 

to prototyping can expedite the design, exploration and deployment of these technologies in new and 

exciting ways. Dr. Truchard will discuss his perspectives on the history of design, prototyping, test, and 

measurement, onto future of system level design for RF and microwave systems with a tightly integrated 

software and hardware tools. 

Dr. James Truchard is the co-founder and current president 

and CEO of National Instruments (NI). NI provides an 

integrated hardware and software platform to simplify systems 

for measurement and control. It is a pioneer in the concept of 

“virtual instrumentation”. 

James Truchard earned a B.S. and an M.S. in physics, and a 

Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from the University of Texas at 

Austin. He is a member of the National Academy of 

Engineering and the Royal Swedish Academy of Engineering 

Sciences. 

After two years of working as a managing director of a 

research lab, Dr. Truchard realized that there was little room 

for promotion unless one of his coworkers retired. As he often 

remarks, he “didn’t see a job I wanted [in Austin] – so I created 

one!”. In 1976, working in the garage at Dr. Truchard’s home, 

he co-founded National Instruments along with Jeff Kodosky 

and Bill Nowlin and began designing an interface board. In 

1986, in conjunction with Kodosky, Dr. Truchard played a 

pivotal role in the development of the LabVIEW graphical 

development software, which allows scientists to quickly build 

solutions for their measurement and automation needs. 

The graphical programming interface that LabVIEW provides 

have revolutionized the way engineers and scientists work. 

Today, National Instruments is a global company with over a 

billion dollars in sales.

Power-efficient ‘Green’ Wireless Communications Given the proliferation of smart phones and tablet 

computers, which have a three orders of magnitude higher throughput than the 2G GSM phones, there has 

never been a greater need for power-efficient, ‘green’ wireless solutions. The High-Speed Packet Acess 

(HSPA) system relies on sophisticated adaptive modulation and coding, but the classic single-input singleoutput 

systems obey the logarithmic Shannon capacity law and hence they require an exponentially 

increasing transmit power for achieving a linearly increasing throughput. Hence the research community is 

aiming for the employment of techniques, which are capable of increasing the achievable throughput 

linearly, rather than logarithmically with the transmit power, as discussed during this research-panel.

Various regulatory bodies in the world have discovered that most licensed radio spectrum is underutilized 

leading to a scarcity of available spectrum. Cognitive radio is an enabling technology for providing dynamic 

spectrum access to such licensed spectrum on a secondary usage basis, thereby providing more efficient use 

of the spectrum. The key components of cognitive radio are spectrum sensing and dynamic spectrum 

management. The cognitive radio was a concept first introduced by Dr. Joseph Mitola III in his doctoral 

dissertation at Royal Institute of Technology (KTH), Sweden, in 2000. Since its introduction, cognitive radio 

has attracted enormous attention in the research community, and it holds great promise for both military and

Traffic Telematics has attracted much attention from both industry and academics over the past ten years, 

with the objective to bring revolutionary changes in the driver experience by the use of Information 

Communication Technologies (ICT) on board vehicles. With the directive from the European Commission 

regarding finalizing the standardization process by 2013 and an expected roll-out of Day One applications in 

2015, it is time to look at new opportunities and research challenges that will arise with the appearance of 

“Fully Connected Vehicles” on our roads. The objective of the Panel “Car 2.0 – Mobile Home?” is to bring 

together leading visionary researchers and developers from both the automotive and the telecommunication 

industry as well as from academia to discussing not only innovative visions and applications, but also 

conceptual, sociological and business changes that are to be expected with the roll-out of vehicular 

communication technologies, and where our vehicles gradually can be considered an extension of our 

personal and home environment.

T2: Spatial Modulation for MIMO Wireless 

Systems 

Marco Di Renzo (CNRS) Ali Ghrayeb (Concordia Univ.) 

Harald Haas (Univ. Edinburgh) 

The key challenge for future wireless communications is to 

make these networks energy-efficient and spectrum efficient at 

the same time. This results in a paradigm-shifting requirement 

which necessitates a clean-slate approach of wireless system 

design. Clearly, such approach will have to embrace the rich 

body of knowledge that has been created especially on 

Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MIMO) technology during 

the last 25 years. This motivates us to give a tutorial on an 

emerging wireless communications concept for 'massive' 

MIMO systems, which is today known under the name of 

Spatial Modulation (SM). SM has recently established itself as 

a beneficial transmission paradigm, potentially subsuming all 

members of the MIMO wireless system family, which exploits 

multiple antennas in a novel fashion. The research on SM has 

reached sufficient maturity to substantiate its claimed 

advantages compared with state-of-the-art standardized MIMO 

concepts, as well as its applications to other emerging wireless 

systems such as relay-aided, cooperative, small cell, optical 

wireless, and green communications. Furthermore, it has 

received sufficient attention to be implemented in testbeds, and 

holds the promise of stimulating further vigorous interdisciplinary 

research in the next years. We believe that this is a 

timely topic and we anticipate that this tutorial will be of 

interest to many researchers/students/practitioners with 

different backgrounds.

T3: Cooperative Wireless Communications 

Lajos Hanzo, University of Southampton 

This overview introduces the principles of cooperative 

communication, commencing with the introduction of the basic 

MIMO types of 

1. Beamforming; 

2. Space-time coding; 

3. Spatial Division Myltiplexing; 

4. Spatial Division Multiple Access; 

The limitations of MIMOs relying on co-located arrayelements 

are highlighted and it is shown, how the singleantenna-aided 

cooperative mobiles may circumvent these 

limitations by forming MIMOs having distributed elements. 

This concept is also referred to a Virtual Antenna Arrays 

(VAA). Then the corresponding amplify-forward and decodeforward 

protocols as well as their hybrids are studied. Channel 

coding has to be specifically designed for the VAAs in order to 

prevent avalanche-like error-propagation. Hence sophisticated 

three-stage-concatenated iterative channel coding schemes are 

proposed and it is argued that in the absence of accurate 

channel information at the relays the best way forward might 

be to use multiple-symbol differential detection. Indeed, it is 

rather unrealistic to expect that an altrustically relaying handset 

would also accurately estimate the source-relay channel for the 

sake of high-integrity coherent detection. EXIT-chart-aided 

designs are used for creating near-capacity solutions and a 

range of future research directions as well as open problems are 

stated.

T5: Smart Direct-LTE Communication: An Energy 

Saving Perspective 

Shahid Mumtaz, Institute of Telecommunication 

Device to Device (D2D) communication underlying a 

cellular infrastructure is discussed in this paper. When enabling 

D2D communication in the system, one can see several 

benefits compared to the conventional infrastructure based 

communication, such as improved energy efficiency, increase 

overall system throughput and decrease traffic load in the 

network. The aim of this tutorial is to give an energy efficient 

perspective of D2D communication and help the researcher, 

operators and manufactures to see the benefits when facilitating 

D2D communication in the network. This tutorial explains the 

fundamental concepts about D2D communication to technical 

perspective, business opportunity and open issues when 

deploying D2D communication. We use 3GPP Long Term 

Evolution Advanced (LTE-A) as a baseline while explaining 

D2D communication. 

Dr. Shahid Mumtaz received his Ph.D. degree in Electrical & 

Electronic Engineering from University of Aveiro in 2011.

T6: Small Cells Technologies in LTE Advance 

and Beyond 

Li-Chun Wang, National Chiao Tung University; Chiung-Jang 

Chen, Chunghwa Telecom Laboratories 

In this tutorial, we discuss the performance issues of 

heterogeneous networks (HetNet) utilizing a mix of macrocells, 

remote radio heads (RRH) and low-power nodes such as 

picocells, femto-cells, and relay. From both theoretical and 

practical operator's perspectives, we investigate how to 

optimize the wireless networks with underlay small cells. We 

begin with an update of 3GPP LTE Advanced followed by an 

overview of various deployments scenarios of small cells 

considered in the 3GPP standardization. Then we discuss 

interference mitigation techniques in small cells and HetNet. 

Last, we highlight the potential research issues in radio and 

access technologies of 5G wireless to conclude this tutorial.

T8: V2V Safety Communications: An overview 

and examination of technical challenges 

John B. Kenney, Toyota InfoTechnology Center, USA; Gaurav 

Bansal, Toyota InfoTechnology Center, USA 

In this tutorial we cover the most important aspects of 

Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC), also known 

as Cooperative ITS. This technology is currently being 

considered for deployment in North America, Europe, and 

other parts of the world. DSRC is used to communicate 

vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-to/from-infrastructure 

(V2I), enabling a set of compelling applications for safety, 

mobility, commerce, and environmental improvement. This 

tutorial focuses on the safety use case. The tutorial material 

includes the various layers of the protocol stack, V2V & V2I 

collision avoidance applications, and the technical challenges 

that are being addressed on the path to deployment. We will 

talk about government-sponsored field tests, like the US DOT 

Safety Pilot and the European DRIVE C2X, which are moving 

the technology out of the lab and into realistic vehicular 

environments. After presenting the basics of DSRC, we focus 

on one specific research problem that is currently of great 

interest: DSRC Channel Congestion. We discuss the merits of 

various approaches to address congestion, including avoidance 

and active control, as well as targets for control (message rate, 

transmit power, bit rate, and advanced techniques like carrier 

sense control). Finally, as a case study we will discuss our 

specific research on adaptive message rate control. The primary 

goal of the tutorial is to empower the attendee to participate in 

this important emerging technology, whether as a researcher, a 

developer, or a planner. 

Dr. John B. Kenney: John holds electrical engineering degrees 

from Stanford and Notre Dame, where he also served as 


Adjunct Professor. Currently a Senior Research Manager at 

the Toyota InfoTechnology Center in Mountain View, CA, he 

has researched vehicular communications since 2007. John 

represents Toyota in the automakers’ Vehicle Safety 

Communication consortium, including as past lead of the VSC- 

A Communications Task. He and Dr. Bansal actively 

contribute to VSC research in congestion control and security. 

He is active in IEEE and European standards, and serves as an 

elected officer of the SAE DSRC Technical Committee.. He cochaired 

the 2011 and 2012 ACM VANET Workshops. He also 

authored an invited Proceedings of the IEEE paper on DSRC 

Standards in the US (2011). 

Dr. Gaurav Bansal: Gaurav received a B.Tech. degree from 

Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Kanpur, India and a Ph.D. 

degree from the University of British Columbia (UBC), 

Canada. From August 2007 to July 2008, he worked as a 

Research Intern with Mercedes Benz Research and 

Development North America Inc., Palo Alto, CA. He joined 

Toyota InfoTechnology Center, USA, in July 2010 where he 

currently works as a Researcher in the Network Group. He is a

4 June 2013, 8:30–10:00 Seminar 3 

Design, Simulation, and Prototyping of LTE- 

Advanced and Next Generation Wireless 

Technologies 

Nikhil Kundargi, Erik Luther (National Instruments) 

This tutorial introduces a software tool chain for rapid 

prototyping of advanced wireless communications techniques 

and algorithms engineering for next generation wireless 

standards such as LTE-Advanced, 802.11ac and beyond. 

Although the value of experimental studies are unquestionable 

in validating theory, the cost of experimental studies have 

typically been a major endeavor both from time and resource 

stand point, requiring elaborate setups and highly specialized 

skills with cross domain expertise. These steep setup 

requirements make experimental studies a difficult and 

challenging task for most researchers and an expensive and 

time consuming process for large research labs. Furthermore, 

the limited availability of low cost and reconfigurable 

prototyping platforms with tightly integrated hardware and 

software also contributes to the lack of experimental studies. In 

this tutorial, National Instruments will present its graphical 

approach to communication system design with open modular 

hardware and software which addresses these challenges by 

enabling researchers to rapidly prototype next generation 

wireless technologies. Through the use of National 

Instruments’ suite of software tools LabVIEW, LabVIEW 

FPGA, DSP Design Module, and IP Builder, we will show how 

researchers who may not have the cross domain expertise can 

focus on accelerating the innovation and how large research 

labs can streamline their design flow rather than dealing with 

the complexities involved in developing a fully functional 

prototype. From simulation to hardware deployment, this 

tutorial will demonstrate all the major stages of functional 

design in the development and implementation of cutting edge 

algorithms for equalization, synchronization, PAPR reduction 

etc. within a MIMO - OFDM framework and lay out the salient 

elements of a typical host to FPGA prototype development 

cycle. 

The tutorial will begin with a brief introduction to 

fundamentals of LTE-Advanced systems and their typical 

specifications, followed by a demonstration of how LabVIEW 

can be used to simulate such a system. We will then show how 

the floating-point LabVIEW code used in modeling the 

MIMO-OFDM system for simulations can be directly 

integrated with very few modifications, into the same code 

used to control a pair of National Instruments Universal 

Software Radio Peripheral (USRP) software defined radios. 

Likewise, using National Instruments PXI platform consisting 

of general purpose microprocessors running real-time operating 

systems, modular FPGA boards, high-speed data acquisition 

modules, and instrument-quality RF front-ends, we will 

demonstrate how the floating-point LabVIEW code used to 

model a MIMO-OFDM link can also be translated into a 

portion of LabVIEW host code executing on a microprocessor 

and another portion of LabVIEW FPGA code executing in 

parallel on multiple Xilinx FPGAs. The seminar will then 

conclude with a live demonstration of the state of the art LTE- 

Advanced based MIMO-OFDM network with high throughput 

data streaming in real-time over the air. Live plots of the 

various system metrics such as received IQ constellations and 

frequency spectrums will also be presented. 

Nikhil Kundargi received his Ph.D. degree in 2012 from the 

University of Texas at Austin under guidance of Professor 

Ahmed Tewfik. Previously he was at the University of 

Minnesota from 2006-10 where he was a Graduate School 

Fellow. He is a member of the RF/Communications Advanced 

Research Team at National Instruments and works on the next 

generation wireless prototyping solutions based on National 

Instruments Software Defined Radio platforms. His research 

interests are in software radios, cognitive radios, dynamic 

spectrum access, nonparametric statistics, anomaly detection, 

next generation MAC testbeds, 802.11ac, 802.11af standards.

5 th IEEE International Symposium on 

Wireless Vehicular Communications 

Final Program 

2 – 3 June 2013 

Dresden, Germany

Welcome from the WiVeC Organizing Committee 

It is our pleasure to welcome all attendees to the 5 th 

IEEE International Symposium on Wireless Vehicular 

Communications (IEEE WiVeC2013). 

After successful WiVeC symposia in 2007 

(Baltimore), 2008 (Calgary), 2010 (Taipei), and 2011 

(San Francisco), the 5th IEEE WiVeC symposium 

takes place in Dresden on June 2-3, 2013. The 

symposium is co-located with the 2013 IEEE 77 th 

Vehicular Technology Conference VTC2013-Spring. 

We have selected 26 high-quality papers for oral and 

poster presentations from the 55 submissions, 

showcasing novel ideas and recent trends in this 

continuously maturing area. Topics cover a broad 

range of wireless vehicular communication: from 

antennas to applications. In addition, three demos are 

exhibited: Ulm University demonstrates real-time 

audio transmission in mobile ad hoc networks, 

University of Kassel showcases traffic signal 

information on smartphones transmitted using 

infrastructure-to-vehicle communication and the 

partners of the PRESERVE project demonstrate that 

their advanced system leads to secure communication 

in vehicular networks. 

Organising Committee 

Technical Program Committee 

Further, two distinguished speakers give keynotes at 

WiVeC2013: Prof. Ralf Guido Herrtwich, Daimler, 

talks about driver assistance systems based on 

vehicular communications. Prof. Hannes Hartenstein, 

KIT, discusses the question why vehicular 

communication is (still) challenging. This topic is 

continued by the WiVeC panel that further elaborates 

on the cycle of research - deployment - research. 

We would like to thank all authors who submitted 

their work to WiVeC2013 as well as all 40 members of 

the TPC for providing timely and high quality reviews. 

We are grateful to the publicity chair Björn 

Schünemann and demonstration chair Oliver Sawade. 

Finally, our thanks go to the VTS and the local VTC 

organizers, and in particular Javier Gozalves, for 

guidance and support. 

We look forward to welcoming you to WiVeC2013 

in Dresden, an exciting German city where industry 

meets academia!
