“…The most obvious way to manage channel load in congested situations in a vehicular network is to adjust the beacon rate generation. Since vehicles often travel at modest speeds in densely populated areas, reducing the frequency of beaconing has proven to be a successful method for reducing congestion [55][56][57][58][59][60][61][62][63][64][65][66][67][68]. However, the rate adaptation of such beacons should be properly developed because sending fewer messages can easily have the effect of harming rather than benefiting the performance of safety applications.…”

Traditional vehicle ad hoc networks (VANETs) have evolved toward the Internet of Vehicles (IoV) during the past ten years with the introduction of 5G communication technology and the growing number of vehicles linked to the Internet. The coexistence of IEEE 802.11p and 5G becomes critical to build a heterogeneous IoV system that benefits from both technologies, being that the IEEE 802.11p standard remains the best option for direct communications and safety-critical applications. The IEEE 1609 standard family and the ETSI ITS-G5 standard family both use the IEEE 802.11p standard as a MAC mechanism. To avoid dangerous situations, vehicles require the periodic exchange of awareness messages. With the increase in vehicle density, the MAC layer will suffer from radio channel congestion problems, which in turn will have a negative impact on the safety application requirements. Therefore, the decentralized congestion control (DCC) mechanism has been specified by ETSI to mitigate channel congestion; this was achieved by adapting transmission parameters such as transmit power and data rate. However, several studies have demonstrated that DCC has drawbacks and suffers from poor performance when the channel load is very high. This paper investigates a new promising DCC technique called transmission timing control (TTC), to reduce the channel load for periodic cooperative awareness. It consists of spreading the transmissions over time to avoid contention on the transmission channel. The objective of the paper is to propose an analytical study to calculate the probability of successful transmission using TTC. Obtained results showed a convergence between the applied experiments and our mathematical model, achieving an error margin of only 5%, which confirms the validity of the equation proposed.

Rate control at the MAC-layer is one of the fundamental building blocks in many wireless networks.Over the past two decades around thirty mechanisms have been proposed in the literature. Among them, there are mechanisms that make rate selection decisions based on sophisticated measurements of wireless link quality, and others that are based on straight-forward heuristics. Minstrel, for example, is an elegant mechanism that has been adopted by hundreds of millions of computers, yet, not much was known about its performance until recently. The purpose of this paper is to provide a comprehensive survey and analysis of existing solutions from the two fundamental aspects of rate control -metrics and algorithms. We also review how these solutions were evaluated and compared against each other. Based on our detailed studies and observations, we share important insights on future development of rate control mechanisms at the MAC-layer. This discussion also takes into account the recent developments in wireless technologies and emerging applications, such as Internet-of-Things, and shows issues that need to be addressed in the design of new rate control mechanisms suitable for these technologies and applications.
