Among the emerging wireless technologies used by drivers and
passengers, short-range wireless communication based on IEEE 802.11 has
received considerable attention worldwide. Due to its low costs,
availability and wide deployment, it is expected that future cars will
be equipped with on-board units, IEEE-802.11 wireless interfaces and
antennas. The wireless technology enables a fully distributed vehicular
communication network, which is commonly referred to as ad hoc
networking. The combination of both, short-range wireless technology
and ad hoc networking facilitate a wide range of novel applications.
