This paper delves into the utilization of Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANETs) in emergency vehicle warning systems in the era of 6G. The proposed system, named SafeSmart 6G, will leverage VANET-based vehicle-to-infrastructure Communication powered by 6G to exchange data between traffic lights and emergency vehicles, enhancing safety and reducing response times. SafeSmart 6G will predict the arrival time of emergency vehicles at intersections using historical data and AI-driven analytics, requesting signal preemption for the chosen route. The paper discusses the potential benefits and challenges that might arise from the use of 6G in emergency scenarios. © 2023 IEEE.
