Abstract :
There have been intensive studies on inter-vehicle communication systems with the purpose to increase the traffic safety. A new inter-vehicle communication system using SS techniques is proposed. This paper discusses the conceptual model and system configuration of the proposed system. This paper also shows pre-examinations of the proposed system by using an autonomous traffic flow simulator including inter-vehicle communications. It is shown that the traffic safety can be improved, by using the inter-vehicle communication system
