Abstract

The future generation of vehicles on the road is going to be driven by wire. To aid in this ‘electronic’ revolution in the vehicle, the role of wireless sensors and their interaction amongst themselves and with the environment is gaining importance. It is an area where the majority of research resources is allocated and being spent. For successful interaction of information from environment / vehicle, there is a need for wireless networking of the information from different sources. To keep pace with the development of wireless networks for intelligent transport systems, newer network architectures, protocols, and algorithms are being developed. This chapter sheds light on all these issues.
