Car communication acts as a base for advanced traffic and car services. There is a strong potential to utilize existing hardware to introduce first car communication applications and services. Potentially first car communication technologies should be seen as initial base to learn about car communication while not all expected functions can be realized with this setup. The more time critical the required communication for a specific car communication application is, the more optimized communication technologies are needed. Considering only already existing communication technologies like UMTS and WLAN, there is a significant potential to implement first car communication solutions in near future. Thus this paper investigates which network topologies provide enough scalability and efficiency to realize first car communication functions based on available hardware.
