Abstract

The boost in the quantity of users connected to the Internet has been increasing exponentially in the recent past. With this increase, comes the dawn of new technologies and more applications. One such application is the field of Logistics. Having a connected range of vehicles can serve a great purpose in time-critical issues like path-planning, priority-planning, continuous monitoring, and security. The aim of this work is to build a secure navigation system of a connected vehicle using a Wi-Fi module and necessary sensors. This shall enable us to remotely monitor and gather data from the vehicle and make informed decisions regarding the path, and time requirements of the vehicle while maintaining security aspects. Any sensor can be mounted on the vehicle to collect necessary data like temperature, humidity, gas leakages, air quality, soil water content etc. However, connecting several vehicles also increases the bandwidth usage. In order to reduce this bandwidth usage and improve spectral efficiency, semantic communication is introduced. Semantics is the study of inner meaning. Semantic communication is the research interest that deals with the transfer of the meaning of data instead of the data itself. Semantic communication is seen as a valuable method to reduce bandwidth usage and latency significantly. In this paper, we present an Internet of Vehicles (IoV) enabled Smart Logistics Solution using Semantic Communication.
