Integrating Artery and Simu5G: A Mobile Edge Computing use case for Collective Perception-based V2X safety applications

As vehicular communications (V2X) become increasingly widespread, the study of technologies capable of supporting advanced applications, like Collective Perception (CP), gains more and more significance. Architectural improvements and new features of 5G cellular networks, including Mobile Edge Computing (MEC), seem to be viable to build upon, so much in general V2X use-cases as in ones based on CP. Our contribution to the study of this field is to provide an operable extension to the well-known V2X simulation framework called Artery, where implementations of 5G elements provided by the Simu5G library can be utilized in the simulations.
