Abstract

Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) creates many new opportunities in the area of wireless communications, while its feasibility on enabling vehicular positioning (VP) has not been fully explored despite its importance for autonomous driving. This article aims at investigating whether V2X can help VP from different perspectives. We first explain V2X's critical advantages over other technologies (e.g., GPS, RADAR, LIDAR, and camera) and suggest new scenarios of V2X-based VP. Then, we review the state-of-the-art positioning techniques discussed in different standardizations and point out their limitations. Lastly, some promising research directions for V2X-based VP are presented, which contribute to realizing fully autonomous driving by overcoming the current obstacles.
