V2X

Vehicle to Everything (communication)

 

The data exchange from a vehicle to entities in its surroundings using wireless technology adapted to suit this critical use-case to provide low latency and reliable data exchanges. V2X is an umbrella term incorporating several more specific types of vehicular communication including but not limited to: V2I (vehicle-to-infrastructure), V2N (vehicle-to-network), and V2V (vehicle-to-vehicle). The IEEE 802.11p standard defines the physical layer for wireless access in vehicular environments (WAVE) which is intended to facilitate V2X communication over WiFi.
