Rate-Adaptation Based Congestion Control for Vehicle Safety Communications
Leonie Tessa Tielert · Repository KITopen (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology) · 2014
This thesis deals with the scalability of Vehicle Safety Communications (VSC), where vehicles exchange periodic status messages to support future driver assistance applications. We systematically develop a design methodology for congestion control in VSC and present a resulting protocol named PULSAR. While previous works typically focused on controlling channel load only, we thereby integrate a concept which allows the adaptation to operate within the limits defined by safety applications.
