Analysis of forward scattering due to a blocking car for ITS inter-vehicle communications in the millimeter-wave band

摘要

This paper a simple calculation model of a blocking car in the non line-of-sight (NLOS) case for Inter-Vehicle Communications (IVC) at 60GHz. The results of forward scattering due to a blocking car calculated by UTD indicate this the calculation model of a blocking car can be composed of four metal right-angle wedges of a roof and a bottom of the car. The effectiveness of die proposed models for some various kinds of cars is confirmed by experiments. The propagation loss characteristics are investigated by using the calculation model. From this, we can see that the calculation model enables us to predict the propagation loss in the NIOS case.
