In vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs), cellular vehicle-to-everything (C-V2X) is an emerging technology for communications between vehicle-to-infrastructure, vehicle-to-pedestrian, and vehicle-to-network which improves traffic efficiency, road safety, and the availability of infotainment services. Herein, a novel V2V-enabled resource allocation scheme based on C-V2X technology is proposed to improve the reliability and latency of VANETs. The key idea is that V2V communications based on cellular-V2X technology among vehicles remove the contention latency and can assist for longer distance communications. Particularly, we propose a hybrid architecture, where the V2V links are controlled by the cellular eNodeB in the overlay scheme. In this scheme, every vehicle periodically checks its packet lifetime and requests the cellular eNodeB to determine V2V links. The optimum resource allocation problem at the cellular eNodeB is to choose optimum receiver vehicles to determine V2V links and allocate suitable channels to minimize the total latency. This problem is equivalent to the maximum weighted independent set problem (MWIS-AW) with associated weights, which is NP-hard. In order to compute the weights, an analytical approach is developed to model the expected latency and packet delivery ratio. Moreover, a greedy cellular-based V2V link selection algorithm is proposed to solve MWIS-AW problem and develop a theoretical performance lower bound. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme significantly outperforms the existing schemes in terms of latency, throughput, and packet delivery ratio.
