Vehicular ad hoc networks offer safety and travel efficiency by sharing information between vehicles and roadside units. The performance of current proposed standard can suffer when there is a large amount of spectral congestion. Spectral congestion can result when there is high vehicle density such as traffic jams. In this paper, we propose a cognitive radio system to spatially and temporally add additional channels to VANETs. This additional spectrum can increase the throughput and decrease the probability of packet collisions.
