Cognitive radio and machine learning modalities for enhancing the smart transportation system: A systematic literature review

Year: 2024
Type: review
Study design: Systematic Review
Abstract: Smart transportation systems implemented through vehicular ad hoc networks (VANET) offer significant potential to improve safety. However, the network faces critical challenges related to security, as well as inadequate spectrum sensing and management. To address these issues, researchers have utilized cognitive radio and machine learning technologies. Although, previous survey studies have provided a valuable foundation for understanding the use of cognitive radio in VANET, not all have systematically investigated its impact on mitigating spectrum sensing and management issues or the role of machine learning in supporting cognitive radio functionality. Furthermore, the effects of security issues on both VANET and cognitive radio enhanced VANET have not been consistently examined. This survey aims to systematically review the application of cognitive radio and machine learning approaches to address the identified challenges in smart transportation networks, offering valuable research opportunities for future investigations. The paper extensively explores state-of-the-art approaches and focuses on: (1) Assessing the impact of cognitive radio and machine learning on spectrum sensing and management in smart transportation networks and (2) Evaluating the impact of security issues on both VANET and cognitive radio enhanced VANET.
