This letter considers the hybrid of distributed and centralized time division multiple access (TDMA) mechanism in high-density vehicular networks, where vehicles within a certain road section perform distributed access based on the slot map broadcast by a centralized unit, i.e., road side unit (RSU). By both theoretical analysis and simulation, we mainly explore how the medium access control (MAC) performance is affected by the continuous vehicle entering and leaving the road section. First, we express the
