Abstract

This paper examines the packet transmission efficiency of the new reconfigurable adaptive array antennas (AAA) based on eigenvalue decomposition (EVD) applied to inter-vehicle communication network (IVCN) comparing with that of conventional minimum mean square error (MMSE)-based AAA. Due to the fact that the proposed method does not need preambles and exact synchronization, it has been verified that it achieves high efficiency in Rayleigh fading environment
