Abstract

As one of the typical applications in the 6G mobile network, autonomous driving will significantly benefit from the extremely high network throughput and capacity, and an increasing number of computation-aggressive tasks will be generated by vehicles and offloaded to edge and cloud servers. Since many tasks generated by vehicles are delay sensitive, it is of great importance to ensure the transmission rate and stability. However, signals transmitted with high-frequency bands, even the terahertz, in 6G are seriously affected by physical obstacles, while the vehicle mobility can cause the dynamic channel conditions.
