Measured joint Doppler-delay power profiles for vehicle-to-vehicle communications at 2.4 GHz

Measured per-tap Doppler spectra are presented for a frequency selective vehicle-to-vehicle or mobile-to-mobile wireless communications link in various multipath environments in Atlanta, Georgia. The measurements were taken using the direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) technique at 2.45 GHz. The environments, chosen for their exceptionally long delay spreads, include an expressway, an urban T-intersection, and an exit ramp. The different environments produced quite different spectra. Also, for a given channel, the spectra corresponding to different delays were different, implying a non-separable channel model.
