Abstract

The number of road accidents reported last year in UAE was 3488 accidents resulted in the death of 381 people. The shift towards the need for an intelligent transport system (ITS) supported by the use of autonomous vehicles (AV) is needed. This paper discusses the evolution of autonomous driving supported with a 5G network mainly focusing on key enabler technologies such as enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB), massive machine type communication (mMTC), and ultra-reliable low latency communications (URLLC). Autonomous driving (AD) is involved in safety applications so the communication system has to be reliable while exchanging communication in real-time with low latency. Next, the system architecture of AV will be discussed in depth followed by a brief about vehicular ad-hoc networks and their contribution towards building a reliable system of Autonomous driving. Different challenges will be discussed related to AV and future research directions will be provided.
