Abstract

We developed the WACNet (wireless ad hoc community network) test system based on IEEE 802.11g and ESPAR antenna. ESPAR antenna is controlled to set sector beam or omni beam due to the several types of packets at the communication situation (Tx and Rx). We can choose the data transmission rate to be adaptive or fixed among the duration through 54 Mbps to 1 Mbps for the purpose of experiment. Routing protocol supporting multihop communication is embedded with the consideration of microwave propagation condition to improve total throughput, total error rate and so on rather than the original protocol. In this paper, we show the structure and wireless communication characteristics and the performance of video streaming at multihop communication with camera and codec connected to WACNet test system on the mobile experimental cars for ITS inter vehicle communications
