Imagine the possibilities if instead of the car simply being a passive receiver of information, it was actually an active information source. With IEEE 802.11p technology, the dedicated Wi-Fi standard supporting Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) applications, that is exactly what is possible. With key information being passed seamlessly between vehicles over 802.11p safety on roads can be dramatically improved through features such as forward hazard warning.
802.11p will improve Advanced Driver Assistance Systems, as it can work at longer distances and even in non-line-of-sight conditions. This provides additional, valuable information that other sensors like radar and cameras usually can’t provide. Of course securing wireless communication will be key in preventing manipulation or tampering of the systems.
