Abstract :
This paper investigates ultra-wideband intra-vehicular communications. Measurements have been carried out in a typical family car in two different environments. All the measurements were taken with different numbers of passengers. Based on those measurements, a channel model using reverberation chamber theory is proposed. Measurements results and performance of multi-band OFDM simulations are presented.
