Vehicle Safety Communications – Applications VSC-A Second Annual Report January 1, 2008 through December 31, 2008

The Vehicle Safety Communications – Applications (VSC-A) project is a three year project (December 2006 - December 2009) to develop and test communications-based vehicle-to-vehicle safety systems to determine if Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC) at 5.9 GHz, in combination with vehicle positioning, can improve upon autonomous vehicle-based safety systems and/or enable new communications-based safety applications. The VSC-A project is being conducted by the Vehicle Safety Communications 2 Consortium (VSC2). Members of VSC2 are Ford Motor Company, General Motors Corporation, Honda R & D Americas, Inc., Mercedes-Benz Research and Development North America, Inc., and Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing North America, Inc. This document presents the second annual report of the VSC-A project.
