Implementation of WAVE/DSRC Devices for vehicular communications

The IEEE 802.11p and IEEE 1609-family standards are developed for vehicular communications in telematics. Based on these standards, the implementation of a wireless access in vehicular environment (WAVE)/ dedicated short-range communication system (DSRC) is presented. The performance of the implemented system is evaluated via on-road testing with the WAVE short-message protocol (WSMP), which shows the efficiency of the system in vehicular environments.
