Integrated wireless network performance estimation for moving vehicles

This work presents two-rank (Wi-Fi and LTE) analytical model, from which we can evaluate the goodput of vehicular wireless network depending on the number of vehicles N in the access point (AP) coverage area. To evaluate the suitability of the model used, experimental data are compared with the theoretically calculated data. The results obtained allow us to evaluate the performance of each individual vehicle moving along wireless access points. Thus, evaluating network performance can clarify the overall network performance limitation.
