Popis: Data delivery relying on the carry-and-forward strategy of vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications is of significant importance, however highly challenging due to frequent connection disruption. Fortunately, incorporating vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communications, motivated by its availability in bridging long-range vehicular connectivity, dramatically improves delivery opportunity. Nevertheless, the cooperation of V2V and V2I communications, known as vehicular-to-everything (V2X) communications, necessitates a specific design of multihop routing for enhancing data delivery performance. To address this issue, this paper provides a mathematical framework to investigate the data delivery performance in V2X networks in terms of both delivery latency and data rate. With theoretical analysis, we formulate a global and a distributed optimization problem to maximize the weighted sum of delivery latency and data rate. The optimization problems are then solved by convex optimization theory and based on the solutions, we propose a global and a distributed multihop routing algorithm to select the optimal route for maximizing the weighted sum. The rigorousness of the proposed algorithms is validated by extensive simulation under a wide range of system parameters and simulation results shed insight on the design of multihop routing algorithm in V2X networks for minimizing latency and maximizing data rate.
