A performance evaluation of warning message dissemination in 802.11p based VANETs

In this paper, we present a performance evaluation study analyzing the behavior of a generic Warning Message Dissemination (WMD) mechanism in a 802.11p based VANET. In our WMD method, warning-mode vehicles notify nearby vehicles in order to improve traffic safety and to control traffic congestion.
