Performance Evaluation of 5G Millimeter-Wave based Vehicular Communication for Connected Vehicles

Due to the gradual increase in the volume of data generated by connected vehicles (CV), future vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) applications will require a communication medium that offers high-speed (high bandwidth) while maintaining reliability in high-mobility traffic scenarios. The 5G millimeter-wave (mmWave) can solve the communication issues related to V2I applications. However, the performance of the 5G mmWave for vehicular communication in high-mobility urban traffic scenarios is yet to be evaluated. This study presents a case study on assessing the performance of the 5G mmWave based vehicular communication in such traffic scenarios. We have designed three realistic use cases for performance evaluation based on three challenges: increased CV penetration level, dynamic mobility, and V2I application specifications, such as data rate and packet size. Then, we have created a simulation-based experimental setup using a microscopic traffic simulator (SUMO) and a communication network simulator (ns-3) to simulate the use cases. We have used delay, packet loss, throughput, and signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) as the communication performance evaluation metrics. Our analyses found that the CV penetration level is the primary determinant of the performance of the 5G mmWave. Moreover, once the data rate is increased by a factor of 40, delay and packet loss increase by factors of 6.8 and 2.8, respectively.

In this paper, we have presented the design and performance evaluation of a 10GHz 32nm-CNTFET IR-UWB transmitter for inter-chip wireless transmission. We have designed the transmitter using a VCO-based high speed clock generator and a positive and a negative monocycle Gaussian pulse generator. RF compatible Carbon Nano-Tube Field Effect Transistors (CNTFETs) have been used as the building blocks of the oscillator and the logic gates. The final design has resulted to a 7-channel-SWNT CNTFET-based transmitter for optimum 10GHz data rate with a promising 650mV pulse amplitude and only 1.069mW power consumption with a -32.27dB output. This transmitter can also operate satisfactorily upto 15GHz. The results show promising superiority over existing transmitters regarding high data rate, low power loss and high pulse amplitude.

Input Multiple Output

This paper analytically reviews the performance of massive multiple input multiple output (MIMO) system for communication in highly mobility scenarios like high speed Railways. As popularity of high speed train increasing day by day, high data rate wireless communication system for high speed train is extremely required. 5G wireless communication systems must be designed to meet the requirement of high speed broadband services at speed of around 500 km/h, which is the expected speed achievable by HSR systems, at a data rate of 180 Mbps or higher. Significant challenges of high mobility communications are fast time-varying fading, channel estimation errors, doppler diversity, carrier frequency offset, inter carrier interference, high penetration loss and fast and frequent handovers. Therefore, crucial requirement to design high mobility communication channel models or systems prevails. Recently, massive MIMO techniques have been proposed to significantly improve the performance of wireless networks for upcoming 5G technology. Massive MIMO provide high throughput and high energy efficiency in wireless communication channel. In this paper, key findings, challenges and requirements to provide high speed wireless communication onboard the high speed train is pointed out after thorough literature review. In last, future research scope to bridge the research gap by designing efficient channel model by using massive MIMO and other optimization method is mentioned.

Blind Spots

The development of automated driving is actively progressing, and connected cars are also under development. Connected cars are the technology of connecting vehicles to networks so that connected vehicles can enhance their services. Safety services are among the main services expected in connected car society. Cooperative perception belongs to safety services and improves safety by visualizing blind spots. This visualization is achieved by sharing sensor data via wireless communications. Therefore, the number of visualized blind spots highly depends upon the performance of wireless communications. In this paper, we analyzed the required sensor data rate to be shared for the cooperative perception in order to realize safe and reliable automated driving in an intersection scenario. The required sensor data rate was calculated by the combination of recognition and crossing decisions of an automated driving vehicle to adopt realistic assumptions. In this calculation, CVFH was used to derive tight requirements, and the minimum required braking aims to alleviate the traffic congestion around the intersection. At the end of the paper, we compare the required sensor data rate with the outage data rate realized by conventional and millimeter-wave communications, and show that millimeter-wave communications can support safe crossing at a realistic velocity.

Adhoc Networks

Vehicular Adhoc Networks (VANETs) have become a hot area of research and development since few years. It is actually a subclass of Mobile Adhoc Networks (MANETs) where each node is a vehicle and when the nodes come in the communication range of each other, they form a network. In VANETs, Vehicle to Vehicle(V2V) and Vehicle to Infrastructure(V2I) communication takes place where nodes themselves acts as servers and /or clients for sharing & exchanging of information. VANETs find applications in road safety also have the potential to improve traffic efficiency and convenience by communicating with peer vehicles and roadside units. As the nodes move with high speed, the topology is dynamically varying and designing a routing protocol for such a dynamically varying network is a challenge. Also other challenges of VANETs are security, connectivity among vehicles, cross layer design issues, mobility & validation.In this paper, a VANET scenario is simulated using Wireshark Simulator in IEEE 802.16e (WiMAX) and IEEE 802.11p (WAVE) environment and the performance evaluation parameters like packet loss ratio and throughput. The simulation results are performed by scaling the network size using both the environments i.e., WiMax and WAVE and the results are evaluated by comparing throughput and packet loss ratio. WiMAX outperforms WAVE in a VANET environment in a big network

Qos Parameters

Software Defined Network is new network architecture. One of its components is the controller, which is the intelligent part of SDN. Many controllers such as Floodlight, Open Daylight, Maestro, NOX, POX and many others are released. The question is which controller can perform better in which situations. Many works were done to compare controllers regarding architecture, efficiency and controllersâ€™ features. In this paper, two of the most popular controllers, Floodlight and OpenDaylight are compared in terms of Network QoS parameters such as delay and loss in different topologies and network loads. This paper can help researchers to choose the best controller in different use cases such as clouds and multimedia. The results with 95% confidence interval show that OpenDaylight outperforms Floodlight in low loaded networks and also for tree topology in mid loaded networks in terms of latency. Floodlight can outperform OpenDaylight in heavy loaded networks for tree topology in terms of packet loss and in linear topology in terms of latency. There is no significant difference in performance of Floodlight and OpenDaylight controllers in other cases.
