Introduction
The GeoNetworking protocol is a network layer protocol that provides packet routing in an ad hoc network. It makes
use of geographical positions for packet transport. GeoNetworking supports the communication among individual ITS
stations as well as the distribution of packets in geographical areas.
GeoNetworking can be executed over different ITS access technologies for short-range wireless technologies, such as
ITS-G5 and infrared. The ITS access technologies for short-range wireless technologies have many technical
commonalities, but also differences. In order to reuse the GeoNetworking protocol specification for multiple ITS access
technologies, the specification is separated into media-independent and media-dependent functionalities.
Media-independent functionalities are those which are common to all ITS access technologies for short-range wireless
communication to be used for GeoNetworking. The media-dependent functionalities extend the media-independent
functionality for a specific ITS access technology. Therefore, the GeoNetworking protocol specification consists of the
standard for media-independent functionality and at least one standard for media-dependent functionality. However, it
should be noted that the media-dependent extensions do not represent distinct protocol entities.

ETSI ETSI EN 302 636-4-1 V1.3.1 (2017-08)8 Introduction The GeoNetworking protocol is a network layer protocol that provides packet routing in an ad hoc network. It makes use of geographical positions for packet transport. GeoNetworking supports the communication among individual ITS stations as well as the distribution of packets in geographical areas. GeoNetworking can be executed over different ITS access technologies for short-range wireless technologies, such as ITS-G5 and infrared. The ITS access technologies for short-range wireless technologies have many technical commonalities, but also differences. In order to reuse the GeoNetworking protocol specification for multiple ITS access technologies, the specification is separated into media-independent and media-dependent functionalities. Media-independent functionalities are those which are common to all ITS access technologies for short-range wireless communication to be used for GeoNetworking. The media-dependent functionalities extend the media-independent functionality for a specific ITS access technology. Therefore, the GeoNetworking protocol specification consists of the standard for media-independent functionality and at least one standard for media-dependent functionality. However, it should be noted that the media-dependent extensions do not represent distinct protocol entities.
