Tendency of Connected VIP and ITS Evolution

The fifth generation of mobile communication (5G) will emerge on the horizon estimated before 2020. It will affect our daily activities to become more convenient and diversified. The development of Internet of Things (IoT) is also accessing to our circumstances as a network of objects and/or things. Then, huge data are generated, uploaded onto the cloud to be analyzed, organized, synthesized and outputting valuable messages as well as information for specified applications. Nevertheless, including Internet of Vehicles (IOV), Connected Vehicles (CV), particularly rely on short range communication technologies for data transmission, such as WiFi direct, Bluetooth (iBeacon), RFID, WAVE (IEEE802.11p), LTE V, NB IoT and LoRa. The fundamental demand of public is expected to connect directly among Vehicles, Infrastructure and Persons (cVIP), without bypassing any ISP. This in fact leads to complete the need to a seamless circumstance. This paper discusses which technology for connecting VIPs in 5G era will win the market. Meanwhile, the change will obviously and strictly affect traffic and transportation engineering. Advanced ITS (Intelligent Transportation Systems) to enter 5th generation of transportation era (Tx 5.0) will be presented.
