Performance Evaluation of A Three-Tier Transport to Riverside Communications Architecture in the 5.8 GHz. Range for Riverine Systems

Waterways play a very important role in the transportation of any riverine country like Bangladesh. A safe and well-organized riverine transportation system can commence some significant impact of the economy of the country. In virtual cellular architecture more than one base station with antennas of different polarizations are placed under one control base station. Dedicated short range communications (DSRC) is a very well known technology for the communications between the moving vehicles and roadside fixed antennas. The validity of DSRC for the riverine communication environment in a cellular architecture gives some interesting outcomes. This paper represents the application of DSRC in a three-tier virtual cellular architecture to determine the optimum cell size for transport to riverside communication in riverine transport navigation systems.
