Abstract
A method and system for setting transmission rate of messages transmitted and received by a mobile unit. The method and system include monitoring the speed of the mobile unit; and adjusting the transmission rate based on the speed of the mobile unit. Prevailing conditions may also be determined and the transmission rate may be further adjusted based on the prevailing conditions. The prevailing conditions may be determined based on at least one of states of one or more sensors local to the mobile unit and information provided from an external source over a communication system. The prevailing conditions may include at least one of slick pavement, limited visibility, road construction, object in roadway, accident, dense traffic, and anomalous driving behavior.
