Modeling and Analysis of Link Duration in Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks Under Dif…

Modeling and analysis of communication link duration in vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) is crucial as it directly affects many performance metrics such as packet delivery ratio, throughput and end-to-end delay. In this paper, we investigate the properties of communication link duration in one-dimensional VANETs for different fading channel conditions. We employ a stochastic microscopic mobil…
