Directional analysis of multipath propagation in vehicle-2-vehicle channels
Vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication links differ significantly from conventional cellular deployments, since both link ends are moving and the antennas are close to the ground level. For reliable performance predictions accurate channel models are required. Based on two different V2V channel sounding campaigns the directional multipath propagation characteristics are studied allowing geometry based stochastic channel model parametrization. The results are focused on analysis of the multipath cluster statistics and the double directional multipath behavior.
