The commonest traffic accidents in urban areas are due to sudden braking that demands a very fast response on the part of drivers. Attempts to solve this problem have motivated many ITS advances including the detection of the intention of surrounding cars using lasers, radars or cameras. However, this might not be enough to increase safety when there is a danger of collision. Vehicle to vehicle communications are needed to ensure that the other intentions of cars are also available. The article describes the development of a controller to perform an emergency stop via an electro-hydraulic braking system employed on dry asphalt. An original V2V communication scheme based on WiFi cards has been used for broadcasting positioning information to other vehicles. The reliability of the scheme has been theoretically analyzed to estimate its performance when the number of vehicles involved is much higher. This controller has been incorporated into the AUTOPIA program control for automatic cars. The system has been implemented in Citroën C3 Pluriel, and various tests were performed to evaluate its operation. date: 2011 date_type: published publisher: Taylor & Francis official_url: http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.3846/16484142.2011.622359 id_number: 10.3846/16484142.2011.622359 full_text_status: public publication: Transport volume: 26 number: 3 pagerange: 290-302 institution: Car department: otro refereed: TRUE issn: 16484142 rights: by-nc-nd citation: Milanés Montero, Vicente and Onieva Caracuel, Enrique and Pérez, Joshué and Simó, Javier and González Fernández-Vallejo, Carlos and Pedro Lucio, María Teresa de (2011).
