Rethinking Connected Vehicles for Spectrum Scarcity

In Nov. 2020, the Federal Communications Commission reduced the spectrum available for Intelligent Transportation Systems by 60% in order to enable next-generation Wi-Fi. The Dept. of Transportation concluded that there will no longer be enough spectrum for connected vehicles. This research will identify and assess alternative ways to meet the spectrum needs of connected vehicles despite this scarcity, while also providing spectrum for Wi-Fi. These approaches are based on spectrum sharing.
