We are delighted to announce that Ms. Chi Weiqi, a D1 student from our laboratory, received the IEEE VTS Tokyo/Japan Chapter Young Researcher’s Encouragement Award at the 2024 IEEE 99th Vehicular Technology Conference (VTC2024-Spring) in Singapore. This conference, held from June 24-27, is a major event in wireless, mobile, and vehicular technology, bringing together experts from academia, industry, and government to share the latest advancements.

Ms. Chi presented her paper titled “V2I Blockage Modeling and Performance Evaluation for Autonomous Driving.” Her research focuses on the challenges in vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communication, particularly in the context of millimeter-wave (mmWave) technology. By using an RSU-assisted system, her study addresses blockages in multi-lane scenarios and provides a comprehensive analysis using SUMO and MATLAB simulations. This work is crucial for improving Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS).

We are proud of Ms. Chi’s achievement and her contribution to the field of connected autonomous vehicles.

Best paper award in 2nd Workshop on NG-OPERA at IEEE INFOCOM 2024

By admin | Comments are Closed

Kengo Suzuki (M2) recently participated in the 2nd Workshop on Next-generation Open and Programmable Radio Access Networks (NG-OPERA), held alongside the IEEE INFOCOM 2024 conference in Vancouver, Canada. This workshop focused on the transformation of radio access networks (RAN) as we move towards 5G-Advanced and 6G technologies. Topics like the Open RAN movement, open-source software solutions, and AI’s role in network management were highlighted. Kengo presented his research paper titled “Toward B5G/6G Connected Autonomous Vehicles: O-RAN-Driven Millimeter-Wave Beam Management and Handover Management.” His work proposed a novel way to use O-RAN architecture to improve communication for autonomous vehicles, especially in challenging road scenarios. Notably, his presentation won the Best PaperRead more
Best Paper Award(Silver) in ACM ICEA2023

From December 14th to 15th, 2023, at the National Kaohsiung University of Science and Technology in Kaohsiung City, Taiwan, Yuze Jiang, an M2 student from our laboratory, was awarded the Best Paper Award (Silver) at the ACM International Conference on Intelligent Computing and its Emerging Applications (ICEA 2023), despite it being his first participation in an international conference. The award-winning paper proposed a method of using LiDAR-equipped roadside units and Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) communication to accurately estimate the position of connected vehicles and assist them when their self-localization is insufficient. The results of the simulation indicated that this method surpasses the traditional Normal Distributions Transform (NDT) scan matching-based approach in termsRead more
