The wireless technology IEEE 802.11p is analyzed with an extended network simulator. As a result, challenges and design criteria for vehicular communication systems are defined. Finally, strategies for channel congestion avoidance and information dissemination are proposed, constituting a robust design to cope with unreliable and saturated wireless channel conditions UR - https://www.ksp.kit.edu/9783866441750 UR - https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/50448 ER -
