Abstract
A method for performing communication in a self-organized wireless network, in particular a vehicular network, preferably based on the IEEE 802.11 MAC protocol, wherein the network includes a plurality of network nodes each being equipped with a communication system, wherein the communication systems generate periodic messages that are transmitted via a dedicated wireless communication channel, wherein each of the communication systems employs specific transmission parameters—message interval and transmit power—for transmitting the periodic messages, is characterized in that a reliability threshold for a maximum admissible load of the communication channel is defined, and that each network node, taking into consideration information on network nodes in its surrounding, establishes a relation between the message interval and the transmit power—interval-power-relation—such that the reliability threshold is not exceeded, wherein each network node applies its established interval-power-relation to adjust transmit power and/or message interval of its outgoing periodic messages.
