Real-Time Semantic Communication System for Remote Driving

This paper introduces a real-time semantic communication system for remote driving, addressing the challenges of video transmission over constrained and fluctuating wireless communication links. Instead of transmitting raw video streams, the proposed system extracts and transmits compact semantic<br/>representations, significantly reducing bandwidth requirements while preserving task-relevant visual information. An end-to end semantic encoding-decoding pipeline enables low latency operator-view reconstruction with low latency, improving robustness without relying on high-throughput links. Implemented and evaluated on the real-time prototype, the proposed system demonstrates the practicality of semantic communication for enhancing responsiveness and reliability in remote driving scenarios.
