Optimal snapshot number of power inversion adaptive array in ITS communication environment

It is worried that the ITS may suffer interference from broadcast system or mobile communication system. Thus, we proposed a power inversion adaptive array which can suppress an interference wave in ITS propagation environment. However, the interference suppression performance is reduced due to multipath fading. As a countermeasure, we devised a continue control method for power inversion to follow the change of propagation environment. In this paper, the optimal snapshot number for properly estimating a correlation matrix is examined. As the result of examination, it is clarified that the optimal number of snapshots is about 30 times.
