Welcome to the July 2021 issue of VTS Mobile World – your IEEE Vehicular Technology Society newsletter.
This issue highlights some of the great recent work accomplished by VTS volunteers, our international colleagues, and collaborative partners who have pushed forward and upward, despite the many hardships we continue to endure during the pandemic.
VTC2021-Spring General Co-chair Jyri Hämäläinen recaps details of the event, held in April of this year. We also have IEEE VTM Senior Editor on Standards Edward Au report—as part of his role as IEEE TAB Committee on Standards Vice Chair—on new standards initiatives in automated vehicles.
Excerpts from the Mobile Radio column in the June 2021 issue of IEEE Vehicular Technology Magazine, and from recently published papers in the IEEE Open Journal of Vehicular Technology and IEEE Vehicular Technology Magazine, round out this edition.
As always, I am always available to hear your feedback; just send me a note at Richard.Yu@ieee.org. Read More... |
