Abstract

Vehicular communications have been receiving much attention in intelligent transport systems (ITS) by combining communication technology with automobile industries. In general, vehicular communications can be used for vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communication by adopting IEEE802.11p/1609 standard which is commonly known as wireless access in vehicular environments (WAVE). WAVE system transmits signal in 5.9GHz frequency band with orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signaling. In this paper, we consider physical layer issues in vehicular communications. We first overview the physical (PHY) layer of WAVE standard and properties of 5.9GHz signals, and then physical layer issues to provide reliable communication link are discussed.
