Preface
With the advent of the intelligent transport system (ITS), vehicular communications networks have been widely studied in recent years. Dedicated short-range communications (DSRC) can provide efficient real-time information exchange between vehicles even with the lack of pervasive roadside communications infrastructure. Although mobile cellular networks are capable of providing great coverage for vehicular users, the requirement of stringent real-time safety services cannot always be guaranteed in mobile networks. Therefore, the Heterogeneous Vehicular NETwork (HetVNET), which integrates cellular networks with DSRC, emerges as a promising solution
