Introduction

This page is about investigating reception and processing of so-called C-ITS or ITS-G5 signals (802.11p) as used in the Netherlands, see also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vehicle-to-everything These signals are exchanged between passenger cars, emergency vehicles, traffic lights and other traffic-related equipment.

An ESP32-C5 development board is capable of receiving WiFi in the 5 GHz band and can receive/sniff these kinds of packets from live traffic.

Stuff to investigate:

In the Netherlands, SPAT/MAPem messages from traffic lights are not transferred over wifi-p, but over UDAP. You need credentials to access that data, it is not clear if it is feasible to hobbyist to access it. Interesting project: https://github.com/idkmanLool9/Verkeerslicht

Hardware

I got this board, and it worked for me: https://nl.aliexpress.com/item/1005012416463528.html

It has an onboard antenna. There are also other boards with an antenna connection, which allows using an external antenna. This may be better, I don't know yet.
