Vehicle Safety Communications [PDF ebook] 
Protocols, Security, and Privacy

Provides an up-to-date, in-depth look at the current
research, design, and implementation of cooperative vehicle safety
communication protocols and technology

Improving traffic safety has been a top concern for
transportation agencies around the world and the focus of heavy
research and development efforts sponsored by both governments and
private industries. Cooperative vehicle systems–which use
sensors and wireless technologies to reduce traffic
accidents–can play a major role in making the world’s roads
safer.

Vehicle Safety Communications: Protocols, Security, and
Privacy describes fundamental issues in cooperative vehicle
safety and recent advances in technologies for enabling cooperative
vehicle safety. It gives an overview of traditional vehicle safety
issues, the evolution of vehicle safety technologies, and the need
for cooperative systems where vehicles work together to reduce the
number of crashes or mitigate damage when crashes become
unavoidable.

Authored by two top industry professionals, the book:

* Summarizes the history and current status of 5.9 GHz Dedicated
Short Range Communications (DSRC) technology and standardization,
discussing key issues in applying DSRC to support cooperative
vehicle safety

* Features an in-depth overview of on-board equipment (OBE) and
roadside equipment (RSE) by describing sample designs to illustrate
the key issues and potential solutions

* Takes on security and privacy protection requirements and
challenges, including how to design privacy-preserving digital
certificate management systems and how to evict misbehaving
vehicles

* Includes coverage of vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I)
communications like intersection collision avoidance applications
and vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications like extended
electronic brake lights and intersection movement assist

Vehicle Safety Communications is ideal for anyone working
in the areas of–or studying–cooperative vehicle safety
and vehicle communications.
