This brief examines recent developments in the Heterogeneous
Vehicular NETworks (HETVNETs), integrating cellular networks with
Dedicated Short-Range Communication (DSRC) for meeting the
communications requirements of the Intelligent Transport System
(ITS)services. Along with a review of recent literature, a
unified framework of the HetVNET is presented. The brief focuses
on introducing efficient MAC mechanisms for vehicular
communications, including channel access protocols,
broadcast/multicast protocols, the location-based channel
congestion control scheme and the content-based resource
allocation scheme. The cooperative communication between vehicles
is discussed.

This brief concludes with a discussion on future research
directions, and provides the readers with useful insights into
the future designs in the HetVNETs, to motivate new ideas for
performance improvements in vehicular networks.
