A tapped delay-based channel model for Vehicle-to-Vehicle communications

In this paper, we propose a new tapped delay-based channel model for Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) communications. Both the well-known tapped delay line (TDL) method and the Geometry-based Stochastic Channel Modeling (GSCM) method are combined in our proposed channel model. Firstly, we use the tapped delay to build a multiple ellipses model, and then use the ray-tracing method to get the impulse responses (IRs). At last, the simulation results of four different campaigns, including the impulse response, power delay profile, delay spreads and spectrum spread are presented.
