Characterizing Packet Losses in Vehicular Networks

To enable testing and performance evaluation of new connected and autonomous driving functions, it is important to characterize packet losses caused by degradation in vehicular (V2X) communication channels. In this paper we suggest an approach to constructing packet loss models based on the so-called Pseudo-Markov chains (PMC). The PMC-based model needs only short training sequences, has low computational complexity, and yet provides more...
