1.3 - Evaluation of Radio Communication System for sharing location information between traffic objects

Abstract

Dedicated short range communication (DSRC) or radio systems for intelligent transport systems (ITS) should be used for transmission of position information between dynamic traffic objects. The position information shall be used to improve the accuracy of localisation of traffic objects. Therefore the safety in road traffic is increased by avoiding dangerous situations and accidents. Due to relative movement of traffic objects the position data becomes outdated, the longer it takes to transmit the information via ITS radio system. For that reason, the transmission time of ITS radio system shall provide an input to correct the transmitted position data at the receiver.
