Abstract
The collision prevention system is one of most important research issues on vehicle safety technology. Sending worming messages within the right time and reliable transmission will get prevention of a possible vehicle accident. The communication standards of vehicular networks (VANET) are unable to guarantee the delivery of critical messages within tight deadlines. Indeed, the transmission collisions are handled with probabilistic manner that can reduce the transmission latency; however, it is inept to predict an upper bound value of this delay to verify the deadline. In this paper, we propose a medium access protocol that ensures the delivery of critical messages within a deadline. It is a hard real-time system with delay constant guarantee. We are focusing on improving the EDCA medium access protocol to prioritize critical messages and to get access to the transmission channel within a predictable communication delay. We create a new enhanced access protocol that is compatible with the IEEE 802.11p VANET standards and adapted to real-time communication requirements related to the vehicle collision avoidance problem.
