Abstract

During the last decade, vehicle communications gained a huge interest and considered as emerging technologies. It makes transportation easier and safer. However, it has a serious concern with respect to the issue of sharing the information. Some crucial data must be transferred between the vehicles, such as orientation, positions, and any urgent road data. Accordingly, the system reliability and feasibility must be enhanced.

In this work, a robust vehicular communications benchmark is proposed to enhance the efficiency for such systems. It is based on enhancing the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing structure by imposing the fast frequency hopping structure. Hence, some of the channel impairments such as the effect of the Doppler spread is mitigated. The proposed benchmark is divided into two processing stages: adaptive re-clustering stage and the multiparalell one. These two stages lead to modifying the VANET standard; IEEE 802.11p physical layer. For enhancing the system’s throughput, another modification will be made to have Multiple Input Multiple Output antennas as well.

The results show a noticeable stability compared to our previously published work. Since it improves the BER at 8 dB SNR from 3⋅10− 2 to be 7⋅10− 4 when using our proposition bases 2⋅2 MIMO. Another 30% improvement has been attained after increasing the number of antennas to be four. Another enhancement has been derived from the results comparing to the literature Lower-ID DCA technique; that they are exceed its performance from the communication’s point of view of either for peed or for the range.
