Abstract
Vehicular networks are facing an overwhelming growth in data traffic demands recently. However, radio resources in wireless networks infrastructures have not been fully exploited, resulting in low quality of services for vehicle users. As a result, efficient radio resource allocation schemes for HetVNETs are in urgent demand. In this chapter, we first present a brief overview on radio resource allocation in vehicular networks. Then, Sect. 4.2 presents a new content-based resource scheduling mechanism. A Bipartite graph (BG)-based cooperative scheduling scheme is also studied in Sect. 4.3, followed by concluding remarks of the chapter in Sect. 4.4.
