Computer networks known as vehicular communication systems consist of communicating nodes located in cars and roadside devices. These nodes share information with one another, including safety alerts and traffic data, as part of the network. They have the potential to be useful in reducing the occurrence of accidents and alleviating congestion. Each kind of node is a device that is intended only for use in dedicated short-range communications (DSRC). The DSRC operates in the 5.9 GHz band and has a bandwidth of 75 MHz. Its range is about 300 meters (980 ft). Intelligent transportation systems often include the development of vehicular communications as one of its components (ITS).
