Abstract

This study presents a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) statistical channel model for vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) line-of-sight (LOS) and non-LOS mobile communication system in a rectangular tunnel environment. In order to improve the V2V communication system performance, the authors introduced the elevation and azimuth angles in three-dimensional modelling based on the original literature. In the proposed reference channel model, the single-bounced scattering propagation path of electromagnetic signals is considered and it is assumed that the scatterers are randomly distributed on the rectangular tunnel wall. Starting from the statistical physical channel model, the time-variant transfer functions are derived. Thereafter, the analytical expressions of the space–time–frequency cross-correlation function, the space cross-correlation function, the temporal autocorrelation function, the frequency correlation function, and MIMO channel capacity are derived. The influence of model parameters on the performance of the V2V communication system is also analysed. This work provides an innovative approach to channel modelling in a rectangular tunnel mobile communication environment.
