Mobile Edge Computing Assisted Green Scheduling of On-Move Electric Vehicles

Wireless Powered Cooperation-Assisted Mobile Edge Computing

This paper studies a mobile edge computing (MEC) system in which two mobile devices are energized by the wireless power transfer (WPT) from an access point (AP) and they can offload part or all of their computation-intensive latency-critical tasks to the AP connected with an MEC server or an edge cloud. This harvest-then-offload protocol operates in an optimized timedivision manner. To overcome...

Scheduling electric vehicles

The Vehicle Scheduling Problem (VSP) is a traditional problem in public transport. One of the main assumptions is that buses can be operated the whole day without any interruption for refueling etc. Recently, new technological innovations have led to the introduction of electric vehicles. For these new vehicles, we cannot ignore the need of refueling during the day, as the range of an electric ...

Dynamic wireless charging of electric vehicles on the move with Mobile Energy Disseminators

Dynamic wireless charging of electric vehicles (EVs) is becoming a preferred method since it enables power exchange between the vehicle and the grid while the vehicle is moving. In this article, we present mobile energy disseminators (MED), a new concept, that can facilitate EVs to extend their range in a typical urban scenario. Our proposed method exploits InterVehicle (IVC) communications in ...
