Hi Alex,


        RSU: Road Side Unit.  A computer equipped with at least one
        IEEE 802.11 interface operated in OCB mode.  An RSU may be
        connected to the Internet, and may be equipped with additional
        wired or wireless network interfaces running IP.

This doesn't cover the difference between an RSU and an OBU :-)

Maybe "a computer equipped with at least one IEEE 802.11 interface operated
in OCB mode, which is physically located in communications range of
vehicles but is not a vehicle device itself".

Cheers,

William
