Vehicle-to-everything (V2X) describes wireless communication between a vehicle and any entity that may affect, or may be affected by, the vehicle.

802.11 Beacon frame. A beacon frame is a type of management frame in IEEE 802.11 WLANs. It contains information about the network. Beacon frames are transmitted periodically; they serve to announce the presence of a wireless LAN and to provide a timing signal to synchronise communications with the devices using the network (the members of a service set).
Dedicated short-range communications (DSRC) is a technology for direct wireless exchange of vehicle-to-everything (V2X) and other intelligent transportation systems (ITS) data between vehicles, other road users (pedestrians, cyclists, etc.), and roadside infrastructure (traffic signals, electronic message signs, etc.).

Smartphone detecting an iBeacon transmitter. iBeacon is a protocol developed by Apple and introduced at the Apple Worldwide Developers Conference in 2013. [1] Various vendors have since made iBeacon-compatible hardware transmitters – typically called beacons – a class of Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) devices that broadcast their identifier to nearby portable electronic devices.
By inputting a suspect's fingerprint, national ID number, or date of birth into the OIVS device, officers can instantly pull up identification information and criminal history from connected government databases. [5] [1] The system currently connects to Bangladesh's National ID, passport, criminal records, and prison records databases.
A single beacon can transmit one, two or all three frametypes. The three frametypes are: Beacon protocol - Google's Eddystone.
