Abstract

The advance of wireless communications and pervasive use of mobile electronics in the recent years have driven the ever-increasing user demands of ubiquitous Internet access [1]. This is particularly evident for in-vehicle Internet access with people now spending much their time in cars [2]. As a result, an extensive body of research has been devoted to enabling vehicular communications with diverse applications ranging from the road safety, trip entertainment to driving efficiency and traffic management [3, 4].

Notes

  1. 1.

    The current communication settings in the measurement of 802.11a/b/g networks are 40 mW with 6 dBi, 100 mW with 2. 2 dBi, and 30 mW with 2. 2 dBi gain diversity patch antenna, respectively. Even though the measurement data is from open indoor office environment, according to the investigation of 802.11b networks in [7], we believe the measurement data can be suitable to the outdoor environment as well. In addition, this is data is rational and feasible for the urban case with high buildings. Hence, we use this measurement data for the outdoor Drive-thru Internet performance analysis.
