Both V2V and V2I<br />

works by using<br />

wireless signals to<br />

send information<br />

back and forth<br />

between cars about<br />

their location, speed<br />

and direction over<br />

Vehicular Ad hoc<br />

NETworks<br />

(VANETs) to<br />

prevent accidents.<br />

VANET is the<br />

spontaneous creation of a<br />

wireless network for data<br />

exchange - to the domain of<br />

vehicles. Vehicular Ad Hoc<br />

Networks (VANETs) are<br />

created by applying the<br />

principles of mobile ad hoc<br />

networks (MANETs).<br />

Basically, both VANETs and<br />

MANETs are<br />

characterized by the<br />

movement and selforganization<br />

of the<br />

nodes (i.e., vehicles<br />

in case of VANETs<br />

and mobiles in case<br />

of MANETS).<br />

VANETs are<br />

characterized by<br />

rapid but somewhat<br />

predictable topology<br />

changes, with<br />

frequent fragmentation, a<br />

small effective network<br />

diameter, and redundancy hat<br />

is limited temporally and<br />

functionally.<br />

These<br />

Vehicular<br />

communications is usually<br />

developed as a part<br />

of intelligent transportation<br />

systems (ITS).These<br />

technologies could transform<br />

the way we drive and increase<br />

automotive<br />

safety<br />

dramatically. Good thing is<br />

car companies and the<br />

government are already<br />

working to try to make this a<br />

reality. All of this<br />

communication and<br />

preemptive vehicle assistance<br />

leads us into our next future<br />

technology.<br />

Even<br />

automotive<br />

manufacturers are also<br />

working on Vehicle-toeverything<br />

(V2X). It is<br />

a vehicular communication<br />

system that incorporates other<br />

more specific types of<br />

communication as V2I<br />

(Vehicle-to-Infrastructure),<br />

V2V (Vehicle-to-vehicle),<br />

V2P (Vehicle-to-Pedestrian),<br />

V2D (Vehicle-to-device) and<br />

V2G (Vehicle-to-grid). V2X<br />

is the platform that regulates<br />

all connections a car makes<br />

with the outside world, be that<br />

another car, an IoT device or<br />

even a human<br />
