The IEEE Xplore Innovation Spotlight features articles on cutting-edge topics handpicked from the IEEE Xplore Digital Library of more than 6 million technical documents.
Recently, the research community's focus has shifted to new directions in 5G and 6G wireless networks. This shift, driven by advances in the automotive industry and the growing demand for Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CAVs), is ushering in a new era of networked wireless systems. The promise of CAVs to deliver safer travel, reduced pollution, and optimized solutions is a compelling driver for this transformation.
Today’s EVs and HEVs use regenerative braking systems (RBS) to recapture some of the energy spent during driving. With the advancement in connectivity and autonomous driving technologies, there is a significant opportunity to harness these features further to boost efficiency.
Contrary to common assumptions, the challenges associated with recharging electric vehicles (EVs) trace back to the 20th century. The automotive arena featured a triad of electric, gasoline, and steam-powered vehicles during that era.
The world’s demand for lithium extraction has grown in recent years—driven by lithium use in new consumer electronic battery technologies and electric cars.
With the development of networking technology for the Internet of Vehicles (IoV), there are opportunities for persistent and dangerous cyber-attacks. If these threats are not detected (especially for safety-critical applications), they can lead to catastrophic failure and substantial economic loss.
