Abstract
This chapter describes the Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) that combine high technology and improvements in information systems, sensors, computing devices, distributed databases in order to increase the capacity of transportation systems and to improve the level of services. It introduces diverse applications supported in vehicular networks spanning from safety-related to entertainment and infotainment applications. This chapter also presents the major standards proposed for vehicular networks, particularly an important subject since several wireless network technologies will serve as a basis for the ITS communication systems. The chapter addresses different architectures in the vehicular network environment and focuses on the crucial importance of such networks for road safety purposes.
