Resource Allocation of Video Streaming Over Vehicular Networks: A Survey, Some Research Issues and Challenges
Abstract
In intelligent transportation systems (ITS), the vehicular ad-hoc network (VANET) is an enabling technology that can provide information exchange services among connected and autonomous vehicles (CAVs). Video streaming over VANETs is a potential application to ensure the safety of drivers and passengers and improve infotainment services. However, owing to the dynamic network topology, video transmission in VANETs is very challenging in terms of latency, reliability, and security. Therefore, a comprehensive summary of the state-of-art video streaming over VANETs is surveyed in this work. Firstly, related works and background knowledge are introduced. Then, a systematic survey on resource allocation (RA) scheme for video streaming in VANETs is provided, and some prevailing and feasible optimization tools are elaborated. Furthermore, enabling technologies of video streaming over VANETs are summarized with a special focus on the integration of video communication, caching, and computing. Finally, we give some challenges and future research directions.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
