\begin{tabular}{c c} \hline \hline
**Term** & **Definition** \\ \hline
**3 GPP** & The 3 rd Generation Partnership Project (3 GPP) is the collective name for several standard bodies that develop mobile telecommunications protocols and standards. \\  & 3 GPP specifications cover cellular telecommunications technologies, such as radio access, core networks, and service capabilities, which offer a comprehensive system definition for mobile telecommunications. \\ \hline
**Camera** & These offer more thorough information and aid in comprehending depthless objects, which are typically overlooked by other types of sensors. Such depthless objects include speed limit boards, stop signs, slow signs, traffic lights, etc. \\ \hline
**CCAM** &
\begin{tabular}{c} Stands for cooperative connected and automated mobility. It enables the capabilities of autonomous driving by allowing sensory infrastructure, communication infrastructure, and computation infrastructure. \\ \end{tabular} \\ \hline
**C-V2X** &
\begin{tabular}{c} Stands for a cellular vehicle to everything communication, which allows the vehicles to communicate with each other, pedestrians, the cloud, and their environment. \\ \end{tabular} \\ \hline
**EDM** &
\begin{tabular}{c} Stands for edge dynamic map, which is built over the edge for facilitating road users with external information. \\ \end{tabular} \\ \hline
**LiDAR** &
\begin{tabular}{c} The type of sensor that sends and receives signals using a laser beam to detect objects. It also fires laser pulses at specific targets to produce a depth map. These sensors are reliable and real-time. Since LiDARs are depthless sensors, they are unable to distinguish depthless objects, such as traffic lights, signs, etc. \\ \hline
**OBU** &
\begin{tabular}{c} The onboard unit mounted on the vehicles is designed to exchange messages and communicate with other OBUs and RSUs leveraging dedicated short-range communication or the PC-5 communication. \\ \end{tabular} \\ \hline
**Perception** &
\begin{tabular}{c} The component of an autonomous vehicle responsible for collecting information from different onboard sensors and external sources; extracting the relevant knowledge and developing an understanding of the environment. \\ \end{tabular} \\ \hline
**Radar** &
\begin{tabular}{c} The RADAR sensor functions very similarly to the LiDAR, except using radio waves rather than laser. However, when radio waves come into contact with objects, they absorb less energy than light waves. Thus, they can operate over a relatively long distance. \\ \end{tabular} \\ \hline
**RSU** &
\begin{tabular}{c} The roadside unit can be mounted along a road or on the vehicle. It broadcasts the data to OBUs or exchanges data with OBUs in its communications zone. \\ \end{tabular} \\ \hline
**TS** &
\begin{tabular}{c} The Technical Specification documents are created by 3 GPP. The TS covers the Core Network and radio component in addition to billing details and speech coding right down to the source code level. These TS are then transferred into standards. \\ \end{tabular} \\ \hline
