Abstract:The Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) has recently received great attention in the research
community. It offers a revolutionary vision of transportation, in which a full-scale
communication scheme between vehicles (V2V) and vehicles and infrastructure (V2I) is
introduced. The ITS vision reflects three main areas of transportation improvement: enhancing
the traffic flow and mobility of vehicular transportation, improving the active and passive safety
of vehicles through V2V and V2I communication, and providing a platform that can address the
environmental challenges of transportation systems from a macroscopic perspective. To
implement this vision research has to be conducted on two layers: the communication layer and
the application layer. The former is concerned with providing proper V2V and V2I
communication at the physical, MAC, and network layers, while the latter is concerned with
using the communicated data in V2V and V2I interactions to achieve the aforementioned threepoint
vision of ITS systems.
