Aims and Scope
Vehicular communications is a growing area of communications between vehicles and including roadside communication infrastructure. Advances in wireless communications are making possible sharing of information through real time communications between vehicles and infrastructure. This has led to applications to increase safety of vehicles and communication between passengers and the Internet. Standardization efforts on vehicular communication are also underway to make vehicular transportation safer, greener and easier.

The aim of the journal is to publish high quality peer–reviewed papers in the area of vehicular communications. The scope encompasses all types of communications involving vehicles, including vehicle–to–vehicle and vehicle–to–infrastructure. The scope includes (but not limited to) the following topics related to vehicular communications:

Vehicle to vehicle and vehicle to infrastructure communications
Channel modelling, modulating and coding
Congestion Control and scalability issues
Protocol design, testing and verification
Routing in vehicular networks
Security issues and countermeasures
Deployment and field testing
Reducing energy consumption and enhancing safety of vehicles
Wireless in–car networks
Data collection and dissemination methods
Mobility and handover issues
Safety and driver assistance applications
UAV
Underwater communications
Autonomous cooperative driving
Social networks
Internet of vehicles
Standardization of protocols.

I am engaged in research related to vehicle networking. VEHCOM is a journal with strong relevance. In recent years, both the number of submissions and the impact factor have steadily increased. With the development of the connected car industry, the influence of VEHCOM will continue to grow. The editor-in-chief of the journal, Professor Atiquzzaman, also serves as the editor-in-chief of another highly influential journal, JNCA. While there may be a short-term increase in submissions and a slower review process, it is still worth the wait.
