Abstract :
Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) systems have become state-of-the-art in Wireless Local Area Networks due to the utilization of spatial diversity and spatial multiplexing. In such systems, the implementation cost imposed by increased hardware and software complexity is not negligible. Antenna selection is a potential low-cost MIMO solution. In this work, we analyse and discuss receive antenna selection in combination with channel prediction for Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) scenarios in which the IEEE 802.11p frame structure is extended by additional preambles and a postamble.
