In recent years, the automotive industry has witnessed an exponential growth in the number of vehicular embedded applications, leading to the adoption of distributed implementations for systems in the powertrain and chassis domains. The Controller Area Network (CAN) protocol has been a de facto standard for intra-vehicular communications, while the FlexRay Communication System is being promoted as the future de facto standard for network interconnections of applications related to X-by-wire systems. Due to the characteristics of CAN and FlexRay, the coexistence of both protocols in the same vehicle is expected, leading to the use of gateways to manage the information exchange between electronic control units connected to different network segments. This chapter describes the main characteristics of CAN and FlexRay protocols, surveying the literature addressing schedulability and time analysis in both FlexRay and CAN protocols. The chapter also outlines the state-of-the-art in research about gateways for intra-vehicular communication networks.

Background: The Planar Inverted-F Antenna (PIFA) is most widely used for wireless communication applications due to its unique properties as low Specific Absorption Rate, low profile geometry and easy fabrication. In literature a number of multiband PIFA designs are available that support various wireless applications in mobile communication, satellite communication and radio frequency field. Methods: In this paper, a miniature sized planar inverted-F antenna has been proposed for dual-band operation. The antenna consists of an asymmetrical pentagonal shaped patch over an FR4 substrate. The overall antenna dimension is 10 × 10 × 3 mm3 and resonates at 5.7 GHz frequency. A modification is done in the patch structure by introducing an asymmetrical pentagon slot. Results: The proposed pentagonal antenna resonates at 5.7 GHz frequency. Further, modified antenna resonates at two bands. The lower band resonates at 5 GHz and having a bandwidth of 1.5 GHz. This band corresponds to C-band, which is suitable for satellite communication. The upper band is at 7.9 GHz with a bandwidth of 500 MHz. Performance parameters such as return loss, VSWR, input impedance and radiation pattern are obtained and analysed using ANSYS High- Frequency Structure Simulator. The radiation patterns obtained are directional, which are suitable for mobile communication. Conclusion: The antenna is compact in size and suitable for radar, satellite and vehicular communication.

Mutation Strategy

The opportunistic exchange of information between vehicles can significantly contribute to reducing the occurrence of accidents and mitigating their damages. However, in urban environments, especially at intersection scenarios, obstacles such as buildings and walls block the line of sight between the transmitter and receiver, reducing the vehicular communication range and thus harming the performance of road safety applications. Furthermore, the sizes of the surrounding vehicles and weather conditions may affect the communication. This makes communications in urban V2V communication scenarios extremely difficult. Since the late notification of vehicles or incidents can lead to the loss of human lives, this paper focuses on improving urban vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications at intersections by using a transmission scheme able of adapting to the surrounding environment. Therefore, we proposed a neuroevolution of augmenting topologies-based adaptive beamforming scheme to control the radiation pattern of an antenna array and thus mitigate the effects generated by shadowing in urban V2V communication at intersection scenarios. This work considered the IEEE 802.11p standard for the physical layer of the vehicular communication link. The results show that our proposal outperformed the isotropic antenna in terms of the communication range and response time, as well as other traditional machine learning approaches, such as genetic algorithms and mutation strategy-based particle swarm optimization.
