  Dedicated Short Range Communications - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC) is a short- to medium-range wireless protocol specifically designed for automotive use.
DSRC systems in Europe, Japan and U.S. are not, at the present moment compatible.
Other short range wireless protocols are IEEE 802.11, Bluetooth and CALM.

 DSRC - Dedicated Short Range Communications
Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC) is a block of spectrum in the 5.850 to 5.925 GHz band allocated by US FCC to enhance the safety and the productivity of the transportation system”.
DSRC is a medium range communication service intended to support both Public Safety and licensed Private operations over roadside-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-vehicle communication channels.
DSRC complements cellular communications by providing very high data transfer rates in circumstances where minimizing latency in the communication link and isolating relatively small communication zones are important.

The DSRC prototype initiative is a prerequisite for introducing new roadway applications such as issuing alerts to drivers about impending intersection collisions, rollovers, weather-related road hazards, or warning a driver that his vehicle is going too fast to safely negotiate an upcoming curve.
DSRC and traditional RFID differ in other ways: DSRC will use a modulation type that breaks data down into small parts and transmits them in parallel within a wide channel, whereas traditional RFID sends everything in series over a narrow channel.
The DSRC Industry Consortium, which was formed in late 1999 and held its first official meeting in February 2000, will receive $1.3 million from the FHWA in the first phase of the DRSC prototype initiative.

 Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC) by ARINC
In North America, 5.9 GHz Dedicated Short-Range Communications (DSRC) systems are being developed to support a wide range of public-safety and private operations in roadside-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-vehicle environments for the transportation industry.
DSRC has several key benefits: It complements cellular communications, where time-critical responses (less than 50 ms) or very high data transfer rates (6-54 Mbps) are required in small zones with license-protected authority, and it enables a new class of communications applications that can support future transportation systems and needs.
For example, ARINC wrote the first definitive reports on DSRC spectrum requirements in 1996, which formed the basis for the 5.9 GHz spectrum petition to the FCC.

 ARRLWeb: ARRL Comments in Response to RM-9096
Finally, the League argued that, though DSRC applications may not necessarily be incompatible with incumbent and future amateur use of the spectrum, and notwithstanding the fact that ITS America reassures all concerned that there is such compatibility, the record in this proceeding to date was insufficient to demonstrate such.
Therefore, to the extent that an allocation for DSRC systems above 40 GHz would avoid the issue entirely, and because the cost implications of that alternative are not shown to be a significant obstacle,[6] the League suggests either that the DSRC allocation be entirely above 40 GHz.
If DSRC devices were classified as Part 15 devices, amateur operations in the band would be unencumbered, since Part 15 devices would not be entitled to interference protection and would not be permitted to cause such.
