Abstract:
This exploration into “Navigation Autonomy” begins with a comprehensive overview of the evolutionary trajectory of autonomous vehicles, emphasizing the pivotal role of communication in enabling navigation autonomy. This chapter addresses challenges and security considerations within communication networks, providing a foundation for understanding the technological infrastructure supporting navigation autonomy. Moving forward, the exploration continues with a focus on the integration of lidar, radar, and camera-based sensor systems, accompanied by discussions on sensor fusion algorithms and the role of edge computing in decentralized processing for navigation autonomy. The final stretch of the exploration shifts attention to “Cybersecurity and Future Trends,” addressing threats and vulnerabilities within autonomous vehicle communication systems. It details security measures and encryption protocols, concluding with anticipation of advances in autonomous vehicle communication technology and insights into future trends that will shape the landscape of navigation autonomy.
