Abstract

Vehicular Ad-Hoc Network (VANET) is the fundamental part of future Intelligent Transportation System (ITS). Physical layer is applied to provide messages transmission between vehicle nodes in VANET, so it has great influence on efficiency of ITS. On the basis of analyzing IEEE 802.11p protocol, we presented a design scheme for physical layer communication system of On Board Unit (OBU) in VANET. Furthermore, the performance of proposed scheme was verified by theoretical analysis and MATLAB simulation.

... Too, to induce a low latency communication system, the mixture of communication from long-term advancement (LTE) and remote get to vehicle environment (WAVE) (which depend on protocol 802.11p) [6], by considering protocol 802.11p within the simulation of the proposed framework. Moreover, the SNR range utilized with V2V channel simulation was (from 2dbm to 26dbm) [7]. So the SNR range in this paper is (from 10db to 26dB). ...

Network coding (NC), in principle, is a Layer-3 innovation that improves network throughput in wired networks for multicast/broadcast scenarios. Due to the fundamental differences between wired and wireless networks, extending NC to wireless networks generates several new and significant practical challenges. Two-way information exchange (both symmetric and asymmetric). Network coding (NC), in principle, is a Layer-3 innovation that improves network throughput in wired networks for multicast/broadcast scenarios. Due to the fundamental differences between wired and wireless networks, extending NC to wireless networks generates several new and significant practical challenges. Two-way information exchange (both symmetric and asymmetric) between a pair of 802.11 sources/sinks using an intermediate relay node is a canonical scenario for evaluating the effectiveness of Wireless Network Coding (WNC) in a practical setting. Our primary objective in this work is to suggest pragmatic and novel modifications at the MAC and PHY layers of the 802.11 protocol stack on a Software Radio (SORA) platform to support WNC and obtain achievable throughput estimates via lab-scale experiments. Our results show that network coding (at the MAC or PHY layer) increases system throughput-typically by 20-30%%.

Prototype applications built on Vehicle to vehicle communications have shown significant potential for improving both road safety and traffic efficiency but the underlying communications systems must be reliable in what are very challenging operating conditions. In this paper two measurement systems are used to investigate radio propagation in Non-Line-Of-Sight conditions at 5.9 GHz. There is an 802.11p network which outputs network performance information and there is a continuous wave system which is used to analyse propagation effects such as signal strength and Doppler spread. The results collected show that network performance may be improved by multipath propagation and packet delivery ratio is dependent on more than the power degradation or Doppler spread.

Whilst the economic and efficiency benefits of Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) are well established, the goal of this research is to demonstrate the simultaneous propensity for low carbon benefits through the deployment of ITS. The foundation of this paper is therefore that the deployment of these technology measures contributes to the positive-sum game of both economic and environmental sustainability. Two research questions are addressed: firstly whether the evidence supports the notion that ITS systems can be implemented and operated in such a way to generate environmental benefits; and secondly whether policy priorities amongst national and international stakeholders reflect a propensity for ITS deployment in order to yield those benefits. The first question is addressed using a rationale based upon both underlying drivers and a synthesis of the empirical evidence. The second is addressed by the development of novel propensity models using primary research on international stakeholders' perceptions of ITS as a priority solution to deliver climate and environmental goals. The research shows that Vehicle Density and High Technology exports were found to be significant variables in determining the propensity for ITS to feature as a high priority policy tool in future transport strategies. The research holds further value in positioning ITS as a policy tool able to deliver both economic and sustainability gains. It holds relevance for both policy analysts and transport strategists at international, national and regional tiers.

In this work, the performance of IEEE 802.11 WLAN scenarios is computed by evaluating Quality of Service (QoS) parameters such as medium access delay, end to end delay, retransmission attempts and throughput at data rate of 54 Mbps by means of different mechanisms used in PHY- and MAC-layers. The Point Coordination Function (PCF) and Distribution Coordination Function (DCF) of MAC layer in conjunction with IEEE 802.11a (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing at 5 GHz Bandwidth) and IEEE 802.11 g (Extended data rate DSSS at 2.4 GHz Bandwidth) used in physical layer are evaluated and compared to offer a better mechanism that can provide better QoS at high data rates of 54 Mbps using OPNET MODELER 14.5 simulator.

The IEEE 802.11p/WAVE family of standards has been designed to provide multi-channel communications for vehicular use. Despite the increasing interest on vehicular networking, further efforts are still required to improve realism of simulations, in order to account for the latest standards and for physical-related phenomena. In this paper, we aim at overhauling the physical and MAC layers of ns-2 to include the last recommendations on frequency allocation, the effects of channel impairments (fading, obstructions, in-channel and adjacent channel interference), an enhanced receiver design, and the WAVE multi-channel related effects.

The past decade has seen many advances in physical-layer wireless communication theory and their implementation in wireless systems. This textbook takes a unified view of the fundamentals of wireless communication and explains the web of concepts underpinning these advances at a level accessible to an audience with a basic background in probability and digital communication. Topics covered include MIMO (multiple input multiple output) communication, space-time coding, opportunistic communication, OFDM and CDMA. The concepts are illustrated using many examples from wireless systems such as GSM, IS-95 (CDMA), IS-856 (1 × EV-DO), Flash OFDM and ArrayComm SDMA systems. Particular emphasis is placed on the interplay between concepts and their implementation in systems. An abundant supply of exercises and figures reinforce the material in the text. This book is intended for use on

In this paper, we introduce the multicanonical (MUC) sampling technique to efficiently simulate the performance of communication systems. MUC can be considered as a unique importance sampling technique that employs an iterative procedure to converge to the optimal biasing of the distribution of the system random sources. As one example, multicanonical sampling is applied to the performance simulation of optimum combining of multiple antennas in the presence of cochannel interference in fading channels
