Chapter 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background Vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) are self-configuring networks where the nodes are vehicles (equipped with onboard computers), elements of roadside infrastructure, sensors, and pedestrian personal devices. Wi-Fi (IEEE 802.11-based) technologies are used for deploying such kind of networks. At present, the IEEE group is completing the IEEE 802.11p and IEEE 1609 final drafts, which are known as “Standard Wireless Access in Vehicular Environments”(WAVE), specifically designed for VANETs. This technology presents the opportunity to develop powerful car systems capable of gathering, processing, and distributing information. For example, a driver assistance system could collect accurate and up-to-date data about the surrounding
