Wideband Measurement-Based Vehicle-to-Pedestrian Channel Models

This article presents a vehicle-to-pedestrian (V2P) channel model based on an extensive measurement campaign carried out at 3.8 GHz. Several propagation conditions were investigated and different mobility patterns were measured. A stochastic channel modeling approach is proposed and parametrized. The model consists of two components, i.e. the first path component and the secondary multi-path components (MPCs). These components were detected via a detection and tracking algorithms presented here. It was found that the time variant contributions of each detected path can be modeled as a combination of path loss (PL), large- and small-scale fading.
