Path Loss Analysis Considering Doppler Shift Effect on Cellular Communication for Connected Car Application at Rural Area

摘要

In this paper, the study on path loss of cellular communication is conducted by experiment and simulation on three different communication modules at rural area. This three-communication module will have different carrier frequency to determine the effect of doppler shift to communication path loss of moving vehicle. To enhance the accuracy of these studies, both simulation and experiment output will be compared. Simulation studies will be based on proposed modified path loss model. For the experimental portion, the Path Loss will be determined based on two things: the measured received power on communication modules antenna and transmit power from base station. From this experiment, the best selection of communication module by considering the fading effect from doppler shift is selected to be used in connected car.
