Statistical evaluation and modeling of the wideband Car-to-Car channel at 5.7 GHz

In this paper we offer a statistical evaluation for car-to-car measurements with a wideband 2 × 2 Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) channel sounder with a calibrated bandwidth of 1 GHz. The results are further employed as a basis for a physically motivated channel model. The main concept of the presented approach is the modeling of the resolved multipath components both in the delay as well as in the Doppler domain, by means of statistically parametrized functions approximating the measured results.
