I would just like to say, with total sincerity, this is a gem of an article at the time I read it. Short, sweet, and to the point. From start to finish, it was nothing more or less than what I wanted to know. I am overflowing with positive emotion. 75.132.69.29 (talk) 16:45, 7 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Parts of this article seem to take the standpoint that cellular V2X (LTE-V2X or 5G-V2X) is better than decentralised communication under 802.11p (DSRC). From my reading, this is not a widely held position. The citations given to justify this standpoint are both documents produced by 5GAA. The documents are not peer reviewed, and 5GAA is specifically aligned with cellular V2X. This peer reviewed survey paper presents the opposite argument: https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/7115909 Very briefly, it finds that LTE can play an important role to support V2X networks, but can not provide the low latency required for safety applications. This white paper by NXP Semiconductors, Cohda Wireless, and Siemens presents roughly the same message, with the additional factor that 802.11p is more mature technology. https://assets.new.siemens.com/siemens/assets/public.1510309207.ab5935c545ee430a94910921b8ec75f3c17bab6c.its-g5-ready-to-roll-en.pdf I would recommend re-writing the page to take a more balanced viewpoint. The article can point out features of both technologies without expressing a preference. Chris.rapson (talk) 20:46, 20 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This article seems to have very little to do with V2X systems. It deals almost exclusively with the underlying radio technology and hardly mentions the intelligent transportation functions that V2X is designed to achieve. Let's be clear the DSRC vs C-V2X debate is about Layer 1 and 2 of the OSI reference model. All of the interesting stuff in V2X takes place in the application layer. This article needs to be rewritten to give a more balanced analysis of the DSRC vs C-V2X debate and it should say much more about what V2X is really about and how it is intended to work. The radios just deliver packets. It is the higher layer packet processing that creates V2X. Hkc30 (talk) 07:32, 1 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

While the page focuses on transmission methods, it doesn't have the classification of the different groups, I think the "types" section can help understand the hierarchy of terms: 

 * Vehicle-to-everything (V2X) - "communication between a vehicle and any entity that may affect, or may be affected by, the vehicle."
   * Vehicle-to-Device (V2D) - Bluetooth / WiFi-Direct, e.g. Apple’s CarPlay and Google’s Android Auto.
   * Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) - information exchange with the smart grid to balance loads more efficiently.
   * Vehicle-to-Network (V2N) - communication based on Cellular (3GPP) / 802.11p.
     * Vehicle-to-Cloud (V2C) - e.g. OTA updates, remote vehicle diagnostics (DoIP).
     * Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) - e.g. traffic lights, lane markers and parking meters.
     * Vehicle-to-Pedestrian (V2P) - e.g. wheelchairs and bicycles.
     * Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) - real-time data exchange with nearby vehicles.

Regarding vehicle-to-building (V2B), Vehicle-to-home (V2H) and Vehicle-to-load (V2L), they are parts of V2G but I don't know how to classify them. Xqgex (talk) 23:20, 21 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Vehicle-to-everything → V2X – WP:COMMONNAME per ngrams — take a look. It’s not even a contest. V2X is the term used for this technology; Vehicle-to-everything isn’t. В²C ☎ 22:48, 13 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose per WP:ACRONYM. While acronyms and abbreviations are sometimes used in article titles, there are many examples of article titles that avoid using acronyms and abbreviations, even when they are more common. Looking over the sources, I think what is happening in the Google Ngrams is that sources will use the full term first, and thereafter use the abbreviation. Thus you get a large disparity in the Ngrams in favor of the abbreviation, even though the sources will usually also use the full term at least once.

    • Yeah, well, when something is known by its acronym far better than by the long name, we should use the acronym for the title. ACRONYM gives us that leeway so it’s not a reason to oppose, unless you’re arguing this topic is not known much better as V2X. —В²C ☎ 06:52, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
      • If most sources use the full name and then switch to the abbreviation, that doesn't really make the abbreviation that much more common. The abbreviation is just used more often as a convenience, not because the subject of the article is more commonly known as that. And to be completely honest with you, I had no idea that "V2X" is an abbreviation for "Vehicle-to-everything" before seeing this nomination and looking over the article. So yes, I am concerned that the average reader will not be familiar with the abbreviation "V2X". Rreagan007 (talk) 22:26, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
        • The name is V2X. “Vehicle to everything” is not the name. It just describes what the name stands for, what it means, why it has that name. This zdnet article is a good example:
What’s the “umbrella term”? V2X. Not 'vehicle to everything'. —В²C ☎ 23:29, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • According to what shows up when you Google "V2X", most reliable sources first introduce the topic as "vehicle-to-everything" [1] and then use V2X in body text. So that does seem to indicate that the acronym is not sufficiently common. – Thjarkur (talk) 10:33, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • Well, the derivative meaning of the term is naturally explained in many sources in case a reader doesn’t know, just as our article would do if this proposal is accepted, but the term used far most commonly to refer to this by topic is V2X, and that’s what our titles are supposed to reflect. Traditionally, WP chooses titles based on usage and recognition by those familiar with a given topic. If we made topics recognizable via title to those unfamiliar with each given topic, our titles would be very different. A few clicks on SPECIAL:RANDOM confirms that. And anyone familiar with this topic uses V2X practically exclusively to refer to it. I think it’s a disservice to our readers to imply otherwise, as the current title does. —В²C ☎ 17:51, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
