27、How Wireless LAN Systems are Different from WiredLAN SystemsSee IEEE 802.11, Clause 5.1.1 and sub-clauses:4.1.1.2 How DSRC Systems are Different from IEEE 802.11Systems:(1) This specification defines a medium access control andair interface that enables accurate and valid message deliverywith commun
28、ication units that are primarily mounted inhigh-speed moving vehicles. These communications may oc-cur with other units that are: (1) fixed along the roadside orabove the roadway; (2) mounted in other high-speed movingvehicles; (3) mounted in stationary vehicles; or (4) portable orhand-held. Communi
29、cations may also occur between station-ary or low-speed mobile units and fixed or portable units on theroadside or off-the-road, in private or public areas. However,most IEEE 802.11 systems implement communications be-tween stationary units or mobile units moving at low speeds.High-speeds are consid
30、ered those achieved by the generalpublic and emergency vehicles on North American highways.Low-speeds are considered as walking to running paces.(2) DSRC devices must be capable of transferring mes-sages to and from vehicles at speeds of 85 mph with a PacketError Rate (PER) of less than 10 % for PSD
31、U lengths of 1000bytes and to and from vehicles at speeds of 120 mph with aPER of less than 10 % for PSDU lengths of 64 bytes.(3) As explained in the definitions, in-vehicle communica-tions units are called on-board units (OBUs). Communicationunits fixed along the roadside, over the road on gantries
32、 orpoles, or off the road in private or public areas are calledroadside units (RSUs). The DSRC RSUs may function asstations or as access points (APs) and DSRC OBUs only havefunctions consistent with those of stations (STAs). The com-mon function between all RSUs is that these stationary unitscontrol
33、 access to the RF medium for OBUs in their commu-nication zone or relinquish control to broadcast data only.(4) In order to accommodate the more dynamic environ-ment with essentially the same radio technology and providepriority to public safety communications, DSRC uses a differ-ent channel access
34、strategy than IEEE 802.11 units andemploys additional operating rules. This additional SystemManagement strategy is described primarily in the IEEEControl Channel and Service Channel Standard (under devel-opment) Number TBD.(5) The essence of this strategy is the identification of acontrol channel a
35、nd service channels, a system of priorityaccess, and mandatory service channel data transfer time limitswhile in motion.(6) DSRC uses a uniqueAd Hoc mode. The DSRCAd Hocmode is used on all DSRC channels as the default mode ofoperation. However, it is the only mode of operation on thecontrol channel.
36、 In this mode, the BSSID is all zeros and thereis no distributed beaconing mechanism. An OBU nominallylistens on the control channel for messages or applicationannouncements and a data exchange channel assignment, butE2213 03 (2010)2does not scan. The IEEE 802.11-1999 management frames arereceived a
37、nd acknowledged but not acted upon in the DSRCAd Hoc mode.(7) RF power, sensitivity, and antenna pattern are intendedto be referenced to a standard location on the vehicle. Thisstandard location is intended to be the front bumper of apassenger vehicle or the equivalent on a commercial vehicle.Annex
