Cooperative Vehicle-to-Vehicle Awareness Messages Implementation

Abstract

Wireless technologies are bringing about a new conception on transport systems. New technologies provide support for increased security, reduced congestion thus optimizing the already existing road network and better mobility support. The standard CAM (Cooperative Awareness Messages) is one of the components of the reference architecture defined by the European Telecommunication Standards Institute (ETSI) for transmitting geographically aware information with relevant date for other vehicles. This work addresses the development of a collaborative environment that demonstrates the use and effectiveness of CAM messages based on standard ETSI EN 302 665 [12]. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2013.
