The proposed list of equipment will be used to support PI's NSERC E.W.R. Steacie Memorial Fellowship research program on "Ultra-Reliable and Scalable Wireless Networks for Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X)". ******Vehicles can exchange information using low-cost wireless technologies. With abundant information from other vehicles, pedestrians, road-side infrastructure and clouds, each connected vehicle (new or even old one) can see and sense much better than any individual driver or car, and make intelligent decisions to ensure road safety, improve transportation and energy efficiency, reduce emission, and provide infotainment services. However, reliable and scalable wireless transmissions for V2X is technically challenging. Each vehicle, from driver assisted to autonomous one, will generate a flood of information, up to thousands of times of that by a person. Vehicle density may change drastically over time (off vs. peak hours) and location (main vs. side streets). In a congested road during rush hour or due to accident, thousands of vehicles need to exchange information badly, only to find that service is limited or unavailable due to the scarcity of wireless spectrum, a grand challenge not solvable using traditional wireless technologies. We propose to address the challenge by exploiting the spatial capacity of wireless systems with non-traditional hardware and software designs. Furthermore, considering the vehicle beaconing traffic characteristics, we propose to investigate the opportunities of applying wireless sensing technology to enhance the communication reliability and scalability. The proposed research program will leverage the latest wireless signal processing, communications, and sensing technologies. There is no up-to-date infrastructure dedicated to supporting the V2X research program in the local region. The proposed equipment acquisition will be used to create a state-of-the-art wireless testbed for the development, test, and enhancement of ultra-reliable and scalable V2X technologies.

拟议的设备清单将用于支持PI的NSERC E.W.R.Steacie纪念奖学金研究计划，该研究计划的主题是“用于车辆到一切(V2X)的超可靠和可扩展的无线网络”。*车辆可以使用低成本的无线技术交换信息。凭借来自其他车辆、行人、路边基础设施和云的丰富信息，每一辆联网的车辆(新车甚至旧车)都可以比任何个体司机或汽车更好地查看和感知，并做出智能决策，以确保道路安全，提高交通和能源效率，减少排放，并提供信息娱乐服务。然而，V2X的可靠且可扩展的无线传输在技术上具有挑战性。每辆车，从驾驶员辅助到自动驾驶，都会产生大量的信息，是人的几千倍。车辆密度可能会随着时间(淡季与高峰时段)和地点(主干道与小街)的变化而发生巨大变化。在高峰时间或因事故而拥堵的道路上，成千上万的车辆迫切需要交换信息，结果发现由于无线频谱稀缺，服务有限或不可用，这是使用传统无线技术无法解决的巨大挑战。我们建议通过非传统的硬件和软件设计来开发无线系统的空间容量来应对这一挑战。此外，考虑到车辆信标交通的特点，我们提出了研究应用无线传感技术来提高通信可靠性和可扩展性的机会。拟议的研究计划将利用最新的无线信号处理、通信和传感技术。当地没有专门用于支持V2X研究计划的最新基础设施。拟议的设备采购将用于创建一个最先进的无线试验台，用于开发、测试和增强超可靠和可扩展的V2X技术。
