Most aspects for this standard depict the link between roadside equipments to vehicles under outdoor scenarios. However, when vehicles move to undercover car parking or indoor constructions, the transmission link is automatically detached from roadside equipments. Therefore, it is a better approach if vehicles can extend their services under indoor scenarios via IEEE 802.11p. In this light, this paper presents an investigation on using this standard for indoor approach. The real prototype using GNU Radio and USRP (Universal Software Radio Peripheral) has been implemented for data measurements. The results reveal the possibility of using this standard for indoor communication.","PeriodicalId":178493,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE Asia-Pacific Conference on Antennas and Propagation","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133864701","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
