Intelligent Reflecting Surface assisted V2X Communication

Intelligent Reflecting Surfaces (IRS) have emerged as a groundbreaking technology to revolutionize the landscape of Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) communication systems. V2X communication plays a pivotal role in the development of safe, efficient, and autonomous transportation. However, it faces significant challenges in terms of signal propagation, interference, and connectivity. IRS offers an innovative solution by actively controlling radio waves to optimize wireless communication links in V2X scenarios. Intelligent Reflecting Surfaces are increasingly essential in Vehicle-to-Everything communication due to their capacity to address critical challenges in this domain. IRS technology enhances connectivity by extending communication range, mitigating interference, and reducing latency, thereby ensuring that V2X systems can reliably transmit vital information for autonomous vehicles, advanced driver assistance systems, and traffic management. In this work, investigation of IRS assisted V2X communication is done, while enabling efficient spectrum utilization, enhanced data rate, and improved coverage in terms of simulation.
