This paper presents novel broadcast methods for an inter-vehicle communications system for ITS. During inter-vehicle communications, it is essential that emergency information be broadcast to surrounding vehicles. Emergency information such as emergency-vehicle-approach information and traffic accident information are needed by vehicles in a particular area. By limiting the broadcast direction, the proposed methods can provide broadcasts to a particular area and avoid mistakenly notifying other areas where the information is not needed. We developed a simulation and experimental system for the proposed method and confirmed that the information is broadcast to the desired area.
