WelcomeVANET Vehicular Applications and Inter-Networking Technologies Hannes Hartenstein (Editor), Kenneth Laberteaux (Editor)
This
book provides an invaluable introduction to inter-vehicular
communications, demonstrating the networking and communication
technologies for reducing fatalities, improving transportation
efficiency, and minimising environmental impact. | |
This
book addresses the applications and technical aspects of radio-based
vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure communication that can
be established by short- and medium range communication based on
wireless local area network technology (primarily IEEE 802.11). It
contains a coherent treatment of the important topics and technologies
contributed by leading experts in the field, covering the potential
applications for and their requirements on the communications system.
The authors cover physical and medium access control layer issues with
focus on IEEE 802.11-based systems, and show how many of the
applications benefit when information is efficiently disseminated, and
the techniques that provide attractive data aggregation (also includes
design of the corresponding middleware). The book also considers issues
such as IT-security (means and fundamental trade-off between security
and privacy), current standardization activities such as IEEE 802.11p,
and the IEEE 1609 standard series. Key Features: - Covers
the state-of-the-art in the field of vehicular inter-networks such as
safety and efficiency applications, physical and medium access control
layer issues, middleware, and security
- Shows how vehicular
networks differ from other mobile networks and illustrates the idea of
vehicle-to-vehicle communications with application scenarios and with
current proofs of concept worldwide
- Addresses current standardization activities such as IEEE 802.11p and the IEEE 1609 standard series
- Offers a chapter on mobility models and their use for simulation of vehicular inter-networks
- Provides
a coherent treatment of the important topics and technologies
contributed by leading academic and industry experts in the field
This
book provides a reference for professional automotive technologists
(OEMS and suppliers), professionals in the area of Intelligent
Transportation Systems, and researchers attracted to the field of
wireless vehicular communications. Third and fourth year undergraduate
and graduate students will also find this book of interest.
Errata
- Page 197, first paragraph following Table 6.5: all instances of "60 ns" shall be replaced with "600 ns", and all instances of "10 ns" shall be replaced with "100 ns"
- Page 203, second paragraph: should be "...is calculated to be -16.11 dBm, a difference of over 16 dB." instead of "...is calculated to be -16.11 dBm, a difference of over
16 dBm."
