V2V communication modeling for environmental channel throughput and radio propagation

Abstract

Safety and non-safety application services require a guarantee of network performance, mostly in terms of throughput and packet collision. The current radio propagation path loss models use mean additional attenuation sophisticated fading model and do not consider the obstacle caused due to obstacles of vehicles in LOS of transmitting and receiving vehicles. This affects the attenuation signal at receiving vehicles. Therefore, we present an obstacle based radio propagation model that considers the effect caused by the presence of obstructing vehicles in LOS. The proposed model is evaluated under different environmental conditions and in terms of throughput, collision and transmission efficiency.
