In recent years , the automotive and transportation industry has been experiencing great changes thanks to the incorporation of information and communication technologies ( ICT ). For some time now , manufacturers have increasingly started to connect vehicles by using various telecommunications platforms .

Faced with these advances , and thanks to their wide diffusion and massiveness , cellular networks appear as the ideal option to connect vehicles both with each other , with services and applications , with the infrastructure that surrounds them and even with pedestrians , bikers , and other elements .
Vehicle-to-all ( V2X ) communications include a wide variety of connections between vehicles and other devices . These include vehicle-to-vehicle ( V2V ) communication , used primarily for safety issues , such as collision avoidance ; vehicle to networks ( V2N ), for example , to monitor traffic and provide real-time route options ; pedestrian vehicle ( V2P ), for safety and prevention ; and vehicle to infrastructure ( V2I ), to prioritize and synchronize traffic lights and
