Abstract

Beamforming is an approach for enhancing security and privacy in C2X communication. In this demo paper we describe a simulation tool for adaptive beamforming in the context of car-to-car and car-to-infrastructure communication. Besides verification, this simulator helps a system designer in specifying the antenna array in terms of element number, spacing, and phasing. The simulator determines the appropriate radiation pattern based on an embedded mobility model, a road map, and user settings.
