Abstract
Although IEEE 802.11b has been demonstrating some capabilities for the communication between mobiles at high speed in ITS (Intelligent Transportation Systems), a new standard was introduced: IEEE 802.11p [1]. The lower layer of IEEE 802.11p is the base standard for the new coming DSRC (Dedicated Short Range Communications), which involves vehicle-to-x communication. The frequency allocation in US (5,850–5,925 GHz) was done from 2004, while in Europe, EU DSRC was adopted in August 2008 with the frequency band within the range of 5,875–5,905 GHz [2]. Currently, a newly formed Wireless Access in Vehicular Environments (WAVE) study group works on the migration of IEEE 802.11 standards toward 802.11p [3, 4]. The WAVE study group is working on more standards: IEEE P1609.3 that specifies the overall communication architecture and the IEEE 802.11p, IEEE P1609.1, IEEE P1609.4, IEEE P1609.2 which focus on the architecture’s details. The 802.11p PHY layer follows the same frame structure, modulation scheme and training sequences of the IEEE 802.11a PHY layer [3–5].
