Medium range (CALM) networks and DSRC. In<br />

addition to commercial applications, the panel<br />

also discussed ITS Public Safety-based applications<br />

that have priority in this spectrum. The<br />

WG 16 of TC204 has produced a document<br />

where CALM M5 (Continuous Air-interfaces<br />

Long and Medium Range – Microwave 5 GHz)<br />

standards are integrated into a general ITS communication<br />

architecture and the IEEE standards<br />

committee has agreed on (Dec. 6, 2001) the following<br />

project groups, that will work on details<br />

in the 802.11a R/A standard:<br />

• P1609.1 (SCC32) Standard for DSRC (Dedicated<br />

Short Range Communications) Resource<br />

Other activities seem to pick up on the new communication<br />

possibilities. There is a group of<br />

vehicle manufacturers (VSC, the Vehicle Safety<br />

Consortium) consisting of the seven largest vehicle<br />

manufacturers globally, which are looking at<br />

the possibility of reducing traffic accidents by<br />

CALM-type communication. The group is yet<br />

to publish its findings, but they have more than<br />

fifty applications defined. This ranges from simple<br />

things like electronic brake-lights and electronic<br />

road signs, to more esoteric applications<br />

where all vehicles are continuously transmitting<br />

their position and vector for other vehicles to<br />

build a collision avoidance model. It is interesting<br />

to note that this is sponsored by the US DoT,<br />

and that they may make some of these functions<br />

mandatory as basic safety features in the future.<br />

The protocol architecture is illustrated in Figure<br />

3 and the set of assumed services in Figure 4.<br />

The CALM architecture shows several functional<br />

elements. At the lower layer, there are<br />

several media that will be used.<br />

From the right-hand side, we have 60 GHz millimetre<br />

wave communication. This is a future<br />

medium that most likely will be integrated with<br />

Doppler-radar to facilitate platooning, or vehicles<br />

automatically driving after each other as an<br />

electronically connected train. The benefits of<br />

60 GHz is the high data rate (one gigabit/s or<br />

more) and the very low link latency. Drawbacks<br />

are the short communication distance and high<br />

technology costs for 60 GHz. The task has recently<br />

been taken up by Japan which has extensive<br />

research on this.<br />

The next medium is the 5 GHz medium. This<br />

medium is based on IEEE 802.11a that has been<br />

slightly modified for global use and the mobile<br />

environment. Performance parameters for this<br />
