A Novel PER Degradation Model for VANETs

In this work, we present a new channel modeling approach for vehicular networks, where there are frequent topology changes due to a high grade of mobility. The Markov-based trace analysis is used to analyze packet error rate degradation dynamics in relation to both Doppler shift and signal to noise ratio. After the model definition, we applied an additional polynomial regression to remove dependence on boundary parameters. Differing from existing works, our idea takes into account the stochastic behavior of wireless links, in spite of most of the existing closed forms. We considered MATLAB for evaluation of the proposed model. We also propose numerical results as a possible application of our study.
