study of utilising scm – mimo channel model in v2v communication
DESCRIPTION
In the recent year’s vehicular ad hoc networks VANETs has received significant attention in the intelligent transport system research. Vehicle-to-vehicle V2V communication can be considered an important approach to help the drivers to satisfy requirements like less congestion, accident warning, road exploration, etc. The propagation issues such as path loss, multipath fading, shadowing loss, depolarization loss, and polarization mismatch loss significantly affect the reliability of V2V communication. The goal of this paper is to evaluate the performance of the PHY layer in V2V communication using a modified Spatial Channel Model SCM-MIMO.

Introduction In the recent years the advent of Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks considers one of the most important developments in the wireless communications systems.
In a recent United Nation UN road safety report around the world, it was documented that road safety deaths made up 2.2% of the leading causes of death in 2004 . It has been predicted that this will rise to 3.6% by 2030.
There have been recommendations made by the Global Status Report regarding the poor collaboration between the sectors made responsible for collecting and reporting data on road traffic incidents.
These recommendations have also included communication between the police, health and transport services and their ability to man such operations.
There is therefore a need to provide the driver with information regarding traffic and road conditions to reduce these incidents, thus will keep many people's lives.

Vehicle to Vehicle V2V Advantages
Nets4Cars: 6-8 Oct 2014, Saint Petersburg, Russia.
• Provides real time safety.• It does not need any roadside Infrastructure.• Battery power is generated during the journey, providing an
extended battery life.
Vehicle to Vehicle V2V Communication Challenges
Nets4Cars: 6-8 Oct 2014, Saint Petersburg, Russia.
• High mobility of nodes and rapidly changing network topology: In V2V, the connectivity between the vehicles may not be there all the time since the vehicles are moving at different velocities due to which there might be a high mobility and/or quick network topology changes.• V2V communication is not very useful in case of Sparsely
connected or low density vehicular networks.

Channel Model
Nets4Cars: 6-8 Oct 2014, Saint Petersburg, Russia.
The following equation is representing the mathematical model of V2V communication which is used to estimate the channel parameters in microcell suburban.
The channel model is constructed under the condition of MIMO and Alamouti-coding.
Environments Settings

Conclusion and Future Work The amount of parameters which are considered in this channel model try to reflect the highly dynamic environment in V2V.
Due to the high mobility, in different speeds some results are inconsistent and having larger period of time, that could reduce the inconsistency. However, it is recommended to choose: More robust space time coding techniques which are reliable in highly dynamic
environment and mobility.Using 4x4 MIMO with OFDM technique.Using V-Blast, T-Blast are more reliable/robust coding which is highly
recommended.Nets4Cars: 6-8 Oct 2014, Saint Petersburg, Russia.
