Abstract
The advanced electronic safety systems that will improve the efficiency and safety of road transport will rely on vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure communications to realize their full potential. This paper examines the technologies that are presently in use for vehicle communications in the mobile environment, and indicates their limitations for achieving the range of functions proposed as part of future road transport developments. An area of research that shows considerable potential for these communication requirements is the use of mobile ad hoc networks, where the vehicles themselves are used to form a self-organizing network with minimal fixed infrastructure requirements. The development of this technology will be described, along with the technical issues that will need to be addressed in order to make effective use of it in the modern road transport system. In particular, a novel approach to the development of a framework of mobile ad hoc network routing protocols is described.
