Abstract
An automobile communication system which can ensure fast hand-over without putting unnecessary burden on mobile stations and can adequately handle changes in road condition is disclosed. For each of the radio zones formed by roadside transceivers arranged along a road, a plurality of transmission and reception frequencies f/fand f/fare provided. The in-use transmission/reception frequencies in adjoining radio zones are switched at predetermined timing such that they are not permitted to be overlapped. By switching a time slot allocated to the vehicle-mounted transceiver, the vehicle-mounted transceiver can continuously communicate with the roadside transceivers at the same communication frequency over the radio zones.
