Six Time- and Frequency-Selective Empirical Channel Models for Vehicular Wireless LANs

Three vehicle-to-vehicle (VTV) models and three roadside-to-vehicle (RTV) models, each suitable for RF channel emulation and based on measurements at 5.9 GHz, are presented. Each model captures the joint Doppler-delay characteristics of a different environment. The packet error rate (PER) for each model, measured with an emulator and a 802.11p Wireless Access in Vehicular Environments (WAVE) prototype, is presented.
