- step S24 the narrow area receiver 32A stores the WSA received this time in the memory 31M together with the reception time. If step S24 is executed or if the determination in step S22 is YES, the process proceeds to step S25. When the process proceeds to step S25, WSA is accumulated in the memory 31M.

To do. If this determination is NO, the process of FIG. 9 is terminated without issuing a channel open request in step S28.
- the extension time Tex is set to a time longer than the time length obtained by combining one control channel time frame and one service channel time frame in the reference time segment. Accordingly, the presence of the determination step in step S25 allows the reception channel to be maintained as the control channel without changing the reception channel to the service channel for at least one service channel time frame after first accumulating the WSA. Will do.
- the extension time Tex in the present embodiment is a time length obtained by combining two control channel time frames and two service channel time frames in the reference time segment.

- step S27 the WSA representing the execution service is deleted from the memory 31M.
- step S28 a channel open request is issued.

Accordingly, when the WSA is transmitted from the roadside device 2 while the reception channel is set as the control channel in the service channel time frame, there is a possibility that the narrow area reception unit 32A can receive the WSA.
- the execution service determination unit 312 determines the service having the highest priority among the services represented by all the WSA received while the narrow area reception unit 32A uses the reception channel as a control channel (S26). A channel open request for executing the determined execution service is issued to the channel control unit 311 (S28). Thereby, the channel control part 311 sets the service channel corresponding to this execution service to a reception channel (S4). Therefore, it is possible to prevent communication for executing a service with a high priority from being disabled.
- FIG. 11 shows the time when the WSA illustrated in FIG. 10 is received on the time axis.

As described above, in the present embodiment, it is possible to prevent communication for executing a service with a high priority from being disabled.
- the reception channel is set to SCH 5 in the service channel time frame, and the reception channel is set to the control channel in the control channel time frame.

- the WSA stored in the memory 31M is limited to WSA whose distance calculated by the distance calculation unit 314 is equal to or less than the threshold distance.
- the threshold distance is set in advance. For example, the threshold distance is set to a distance obtained by multiplying the communicable distance of the narrow area transmission unit 32B by a coefficient smaller than 1. This is because the communication using the service channel is usually unicast or multicast, and thus the roadside unit 2 needs to reliably receive a signal transmitted by the narrow area transmission unit 32B.
