Abstract

In vehicular communication networks, reliable delivery of safety messages is crucial and any transmission collision is to be avoided. A method based on time division multiple access scheme is described. An extra layer is provided to manage and schedule transmission of safety messages. The extra, message broadcasting handling layer (MBH layer) is provided between safety applications and medium access control (MAC) layer. Safety messages generated and received from safety application is spooled in the MBH layer and scheduled by the MBH layer for delivery to the MAC layer for broadcasting. A device to implement the method is also described.
