Description & Coverage
Description:

Typically, communication technology breakthroughs and developments occur for the purposes of home, work, or cellular and mobile networks. Communications in transportation systems are often overlooked, yet they are equally as important.  

Communication in Transportation Systems brilliantly bridges theoretical knowledge and practical applications of cutting-edge technologies for communication in automotive applications. This reference source carefully covers innovative technologies which will continue to advance transportation systems. Researchers, developers, scholars, engineers, and graduate students in the transportation and automotive system, communication, electrical, and information technology fields will especially benefit from this advanced publication.

Coverage:

The many academic areas covered in this publication include, but are not limited to:

  • Automotive Engineering Communication Systems
  • FlexRay, Time Triggered CAN (TT-CAN) and Protocol (TTP)
  • Local Interacting Network (LIN)
  • Media Oriented Systems Transport (MOST)
  • Sensor Systems
  • Systems and Software Engineering
  • Ultrasonic Communication
  • Web Technologies & Engineering
  • Wire-Based, Cable-Optic and Optical Wireless Communication
  • WLAN Systems
Reviews & Statements

Electronic and communication engineers describe current and nascent technology for optical data buses in automotive applications to allow communication within vehicles, between vehicles, and between vehicles and the land-line communication grid. Their topics include physical layer implementations of communications standards in automotive systems, modeling polymer optical fibers, radio over fiber access networks for broadband wireless communications, communication networks to connect moving vehicles to transportation systems to infrastructure, and short-range ultrasonic communications in air.
