The title of this journal paper is LTE and IEEE 802.11p for vehicular networking: a
performance evaluation that was written by Zeeshan Hameed Mir and Fethi Filali in the
year 2014. The main objective of this journal is to describe the con concept of LTE and
IEE 802.11 and evaluate their performance. In this modern era information technology
developed different types of wireless networks for different application in which LTE is
one of the advanced communication systems that have the potential to transfer data
from one location to another. There are main three applications of wireless
communication, for example, road safety, and infotainment and traffic efficiency.
In this journal paper, author analysis the concept of LTE network and also evaluate their
performance related issues and researcher explain main two communication systems
that are long-term evaluation and IEEE 802.11p (Mir, and Filali, 2014). According to the
author, LTE is a very popular communication network which is used in mobile phones
to share data or information from one person to another and it does not require any
connecting wires. The main advantage of this wireless network is that it is a more
effective approach to send a high-level data signal from transmitter to receiver. It is
very necessary to identify the advantages and disadvantages of the wireless network by
which people can adopt a more effective communication approach. Furthermore, the
researcher also compares the performance related issues between the long-term
evaluation and 802.11p for different networking situation. In this paper, the author
used both qualitative and quantitative research method to improve the effectiveness of
the paper and a survey is conducted to analyse the opinion of other experts. In the
qualitative analysis, the relevant information is collected from the various resources, for
example, previous investigation, journal paper, online websites and books and
quantitative data is collected from the survey. The author developed a research
question to improve the effectiveness of the paper such as how to do various
networking components like frequency, vehicle speed effect, vehicle density affects the
performance of LTE and IEEE 802.11p communication network. There are main two
evaluation steps involved in this research in which the first process is to analyse the
impacts of varying beacon transmission frequency on the performance. Another one is

to study the effect of vehicle average speed on the performance of LTE and IEEE
802.11p. In this research paper, the writer presented a comparative study between LTE
and 802.11pfor vehicular networking system and readers can enhance their knowledge
in the field of networking and communication system.
According to my opinion, long-term evaluation and IEEE 802.11p both are very
advanced communication networks that can be used in the field of vehicular networking
because they have potential to improve the overall performance and efficiency of the
communication system. The security of these networks can be improved by adopting
security techniques like encryption, encoding and cryptography. LTE is suitable for
most of the communication application and people can use this approach in the area of
vehicular networks.
