Vehicular Communication Systems - Applications

Applications

Vehicular communication networks will provide a wide range of applications with different characteristics. As these networks have not yet been implemented, a list of such applications is speculative and apt to change in the future (However safety, which is the main purpose of these networks, will most probably remain the most important applications). Furthermore some of these applications require technologies that are not available now. Ultimately we would like to delegate the full handling control of our cars to the vehicles themselves; somewhat similar to autopilot. The classifications of applications is not unique and many institutions involved in intelligent transportation systems propose their own set of applications and classifications. We classify the possible applications in the following categories:
