A Comprehensive Survey on the Integrity of Localization Systems.

This survey extends and refines the existing definitions of integrity and protection level in localization systems (localization as a broad term, i.e., not limited to GNSS-based localization).

Cloud Update of Tiled Evidential Occupancy Grid Maps for the Multi-Vehicle Mapping.

Nowadays, many intelligent vehicles are equipped with various sensors to recognize their surrounding environment and to measure the motion or position of the vehicle. In addition, the number of intelligent vehicles equipped with a mobile Internet modem is increasing. Based on the sensors and Internet connection, the intelligent vehicles are able to share the sensor information with other vehicles via a cloud service.

Autonomous docking based on infrared system for electric vehicle charging in urban areas.

Electric vehicles are progressively introduced in urban areas, because of their ability to reduce air pollution, fuel consumption and noise nuisance. Nowadays, some big cities are launching the first electric car-sharing projects to clear traffic jams and enhance urban mobility, as an alternative to the classic public transportation systems. However, there are still some problems to be solved related to energy storage, electric charging and autonomy.
