VEHICLE-TO-INFRASTRUCTURE COMMUNICATION BASED ON IEEE 802.11G

Vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communication based on wireless local area network (WLAN) IEEE 802.11 standard technology can support user in-motion to achieve preferable Internet connectivity. Wireless access for the vehicular environment (i.e. IEEE802.11p) provides the required standardization for vehicle-to-vehicle V2X communication solutions supporting raw data rate up to 27 Mbps. This standard is created for urgent short message transmission. Otherwise, for transmission of large amount of data alternative solutions may be proposed. In this paper we present an experimental study of IEEE802.11g using off-the-shelf devices in vehicle-to-infrastructure small scale scenario. In order to evaluate the V2I the type of communication in large scale scenario, in this paper we propose analytic model to characterize the goodput of WLAN-based networks using Markov process
