Vehicular intelligence in 6G: Networking, communications, and computing

With the deployment of 5G, researchers and experts begin to look forward to 6G. They predict that 6G will be the key driving force for information interaction and social life after 2030. With the help of artificial intelligence (AI), 6G will be a highly autonomous closed-loop network, and will make up for 5G's shortcomings in communications, computing and global coverage, achieving AI of things (AIoT). In 6G life, vehicles may become another indispensable devices for people besides smartphones, and non-polluting, highly safe as well as full-autonomous vehicles will be the goal of vehicular development. In order to ensure the safe driving of future vehicles and meet the entertainment needs of passengers, it is necessary to investigate future 6G vehicular intelligence. In this paper, we will discuss its networking, communications, computing and intelligence, look into future technological developments and applications, and identify forthcoming challenges and research directions.
