| description | Due to its anticipated impacts on the performance of transportation systems, intelligent transport systems (ITS) have emerged as one of the most extensively investigated topics. The U.S. Department of Transportation has defined route guidance systems (RGSs) as one of the main categories within ITS. Systems like these are essential components when managing travel and transportation. While RGSs play a pivotal role in both present and future transportation, there has been limited research on evaluating the effectiveness and dependability of integrating them with vehicular communication frameworks. Therefore, this paper aims to evaluate the RGS architectures proposed to date in the literature, providing comparisons and classifications based on their structures and requirements for communication systems. Moreover, it explores existing, next generation, as well as prospective choices for V2X communication technologies, evaluating how well they contribute to the development of RGS applications by integrating them with potential communication systems. Specifically, this study assesses the suitability of communication technologies in meeting the requirements of RGS applications. In conclusion, it suggests a framework for integrating RGS and V2X systems and offers directions for future research in this area. |
