6D Movable Antenna for Internet of Vehicles: CSI-Free Dynamic Antenna Configuration

Deploying six-dimensional movable antenna (6DMA) systems in Internet-of-Vehicles (IoV) scenarios can greatly enhance spectral efficiency. However, the high mobility of vehicles causes rapid spatio-temporal channel variations, posing a significant challenge to real-time 6DMA optimization. In this work, we pioneer the application of 6DMA in IoV and propose a low-complexity, instantaneous channel state information (CSI)-free dynamic configuration method. By integrating vehicle motion prediction with offline directional response priors, the proposed approach optimizes antenna positions and orientations at each reconfiguration epoch to maximize the average sum rate over a future time window. Simulation results in a typical urban intersection scenario demonstrate that the proposed 6DMA scheme significantly outperforms conventional fixed antenna arrays and simplified 6DMA baseline schemes in terms of total sum rate.

Semantic-Aware Cooperative Communication and Computation Framework in Vehicular Networks

Semantic Communication (SC) combined with Vehicular edge computing (VEC) provides an efficient edge task processing paradigm for Internet of Vehicles (IoV). Focusing on highway scenarios, this paper proposes a Tripartite Cooperative Semantic Communication (TCSC) framework, which enables Vehicle Users (VUs) to perform semantic task offloading via Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) and Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) communications. Considering task latency and the number of semantic symbols, the framework constructs a Mixed-Integer Nonlinear Programming (MINLP) problem, which is transformed into two subproblems. First, we innovatively propose a multi-agent proximal policy optimization task offloading optimization method based on parametric distribution noise (MAPPO-PDN) to solve the optimization problem of the number of semantic symbols; second, linear programming (LP) is used to solve offloading ratio. Simulations show that performance of this scheme is superior to that of other algorithms.

Graph Neural Networks and Deep Reinforcement Learning Based Resource Allocation for V2X Communications

In the rapidly evolving landscape of Internet of Vehicles (IoV) technology, Cellular Vehicle-to-Everything (C-V2X) communication has attracted much attention due to its superior performance in coverage, latency, and throughput. Resource allocation within C-V2X is crucial for ensuring the transmission of safety information and meeting the stringent requirements for ultra-low latency and high reliability in Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) communication. This paper proposes a method that integrates Graph Neural Networks (GNN) with Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) to address this challenge. By constructing a dynamic graph with communication links as nodes and employing the Graph Sample and Aggregation (GraphSAGE) model to adapt to changes in graph structure, the model aims to ensure a high success rate for V2V communication while minimizing interference on Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) links, thereby ensuring the successful transmission of V2V link information and maintaining high transmission rates for V2I links. The proposed method retains the global feature learning capabilities of GNN and supports distributed network deployment, allowing vehicles to extract low-dimensional features that include structural information from the graph network based on local observations and to make independent resource allocation decisions. Simulation results indicate that the introduction of GNN, with a modest increase in computational load, effectively enhances the decision-making quality of agents, demonstrating superiority to other methods. This study not only provides a theoretically efficient resource allocation strategy for V2V and V2I communications but also paves a new technical path for resource management in practical IoV environments.
