In the era of information society and 5G networks, cars are extremely important mobile information carriers. In order to meet the needs of multi-scenario business requirements such as vehicle assisted driving and in-vehicle entertainment, cars need to interact with the outside world. This interconnection and data transmission process is usually called vehicular communication (V2X, Vehicle-to-Everything). Device-to-device (D2D) communication not only has partial nature of communication, but also alleviate the current problem of spectrum scarcity of resources. The application of D2D communication in V2X can meet the requirements of high reliability and low latency, but resource reuse also brings interference. Software-defined networking (SDN) provides an optimal solution for interoperability and flexibility between the V2X and D2D communication. This paper reviews the integration of D2D and V2X communication from the perspective of SDN. The state-of-the-art and architectures of D2D-V2X were discussed. The similarity, characteristics, routing control, location management, patch scheduling and recovery is described. The integrated architecture reviewed in this paper can solve the problems of routing management, interference management and mobile management. It also overcome the disconnection problem between the D2D-V2X in terms of SDN and provides some effective solutions.
