In this paper we investigate the performance of Dedicated Short-Range Communications (DSRC) or IEEE 802. 11p/OCB transceiver gathering performance statistics and relating its usage for ensuring safety and mitigating collision avoidance in Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) communications. To achieve this, we created a low-cost Software Defined Radio (SDR) based DSRC testbed. We focus on quality of service (QoS) and robustness of such a system to assess how it could be used to support road safety applications and assist cooperative awareness in smart cities. To deal with real-world scenarios, we established a testbed using SDR devices and tested in varied scenarios. Our experiments are tailored to give insights into the fundamental challenges regarding how the practical driving safety issues can be effectively addressed by different technologies such as SDR, V2V communications, sensing and their combination. The results we collected and analysed can be used to support future V2V experimentation.
