Spectrum regulators and stakeholders from the wireless industry and Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) communities are exploring the use of the 5.9 GHz band for the dissemination of basic safety messages. Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC) sends out these messages at a constant rate of 10 Hz and packet collisions occur in dense vehicular environments. In this paper, we propose a priority-based dynamic beaconing scheme. The scheme determines a higher beacon transmission rate for vehicles that are at a higher risk of collision. Two risk based beacon rate protocols are evaluated in our ns-3 simulator, one that adapts the beacon rate between 1 and 10 Hz, and another between 1 and 20 Hz. This improves the packet delivery ratio (PDR) performance by up to 45% in congested environments using the 1-10 Hz adaptive beacon rate protocol and by 38% using the 1-20 Hz adaptive scheme. The simulation results also show that the likelihood of a vehicle collision due to missed packets decreases by up to 77% in a three lane dense highway scenario with 160 vehicles operating at different speeds.
