Abstract | Safety applications are currently being developed in next generation vehicular networks to provide road safety. Broadcasting of safety messages unveils the need of reliability assessment since there are no request-to-send (RTS)/clear-to-send (CTS) handshaking and acknowledgment packets in broadcast vehicular communications. Therefore, the reliability of broadcast messages suffer from hidden terminal problem, interference and high mobility. To overcome these challenges, Signal-to-Interference-and-Noise Ratio (SINR) estimation is a key solution so that we can foresee the transmission collisions caused by hidden terminals and prevent its transmissions. Then, we can build a model to improve reliability of broadcast messages. Towards this aim, in this paper, we propose a SINR based hidden terminal estimation model. First, we introduce a method to specify hidden terminals and their transmissions, then we estimate accurate SINR level at the receiver in the near future. Second, we formulate the successfully received packets with a heuristic algorithm and, calculate throughput and hidden terminal radius. Our approach enables significant improvement in the reliability of broadcast vehicular communications. |
