Abstract :
A proposal for a communication architecture for road transport telematics (RTT) infrastructure networks is presented. First, the technical approach which has been set up to cope with the relevant subjects is introduced. Then, the communication requirements of RTT applications are considered. Following that, the protocol profile is defined which includes a protocol stack for the vehicle-roadside communications via beacons (DSRC). Thereupon, the protocol evaluation and the co-operation between the beacons and the fixed network ape discussed. Finally, the performance analysis of medium access control (MAC) protocols for the DSRC and for the fixed network are addressed
