Noyce"],"abstract":"An accurate and robust localization system is crucial for autonomous vehicles (AVs) to enable safe driving in urban scenes. While existing global navigation satellite system (GNSS)-based methods are effective at locating vehicles in open-sky regions, achieving high-accuracy positioning in urban canyons such as lower layers of multi-layer bridges, streets beside tall buildings, tunnels, etc., remains a challenge. In this paper, we investigate the potential of cellular-vehicle-to-everything (C-V2X) wireless communications in improving the localization performance of AVs under GNSS-denied environments. Specifically, we propose the first roadside unit (RSU)-enabled cooperative localization framework, namely CV2X-LOCA, that only uses C-V2X channel state information to achieve lane-level positioning accuracy. CV2X-LOCA consists of four key parts: data processing module, coarse positioning module, environment parameter correcting module, and vehicle trajectory filtering module. These modules jointly handle challenges present in dynamic C-V2X networks. Extensive simulation and field experiments show that CV2X-LOCA achieves state-of-the-art performance for vehicle localization even under noisy conditions with high-speed movement and sparse RSUs coverage environments. The study results also provide insights into future investment decisions for transportation agencies regarding deploying RSUs cost-effectively.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2304.00676v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2304.00676v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"cv2x-loca-roadside-unit-enabled-cooperative","repo_url":"https://github.com/julianwong-source/cv2x-loca","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
