ABSTRACT

The latest citizen census data shows that the world's largest cities experienced population growth last year. As migrations continue, cities will need to work harder and more efficiently to keep up with the impact of the growing population. Because of this, smart cities will set standards in major metropolitan areas around the world. Self-driving cars would be the solution for overpopulated cities, where citizens will have fast, comfortable, economical, safe, and secure vehicles at their disposal, which allow them to effortlessly reach their destinations on time with the help of the 5G network. The next mobile revolution is upon us, with autonomous vehicles heralded as a new element of road traffic. Using cameras and sensors to process road and traffic data in real-time, these vehicles also exchange information with each other and traffic infrastructure, relieving the driver of numerous tasks. Therefore, besides improving the safety of road traffic, autonomous vehicles will bring significant changes to the society we know today.
