Abstract
This contribution presents some aspects of NGV PHY simulation. Best
practices and reference implementations are presented for:
Channel models
Oversampling
Power Amplifier (PA) model
Phase noise
Carrier Frequency Offset (CFO)
Open source 802.11p model [1] available at

Slide 3
Channel models
The Car-2-Car channel models [2] are a
good basis for the evaluation of PHY
performance under time and frequency-
selective propagation conditions
These are tap-delay models defined by a
sets of delay, power and Doppler spectra
In [2], the Doppler spectra after the 1
st
 tap
are defined as “Half-Bathtub”
A more mathematically accurate
description would be “Asymmetric Jakes”
with limits [0,

Channel models
MATLAB’s 
comm.RicianChannel
 allows for such spectrum
definitions per channel tap
A reference definition is available in the ubx-v2x model

Enhanced channel models
A set of even more challenging channel
models have been proposed in [3]
A reference implementation is also
available in the ubx-v2x model

Oversampling
Topic 2
March 2019
Ioannis Sarris, u-blox
Slide 7
Oversampling
Contribution 19/0017r4 proposed
the use of oversampling (8x) when
simulating NGV
Oversampling is useful for
investigations on
Spectrum mask compliance
PA non-linearity
Multi Channel Operation
Adjacent channel rejection

Slide 8
Oversampling
Investigation of baseband
performance is not affected by
oversampling on its own
Baseband equivalence holds
Example: PER vs SNR
10 MHz vs 40 MHz
No significant difference in performance
observed

Power Amplifier model
Model introduced in 11-00/294
RAPP model
Indicative parameters
p = 3
Output back-off (OBO) = 8 dB

Phase noise
Topic 4
March 2019
Ioannis Sarris, u-blox
Slide 12
Phase noise
Usually modelled with a pole-zero
model (11-03/814r31)
PSD(0) = -100 dBc/Hz
pole frequency 
f
p 
= 250 kHz
zero frequency 
f
z
 = 7905.7 kHz
PSD(0) = -100 dBc/Hz produces a
negligible effect in PER performance
Higher values are more realistic

Slide 13
 
Carrier Frequency Offset
Topic 5
March 2019
Ioannis Sarris, u-blox
Slide 14
Carrier Frequency Offset
CFO is often modelled as a uniformly
distributed R.V. between -40 and 40 ppm
This is a very pessimistic scenario with
extreme values derived from the maximum
allowed frequency error at both ends
The state-of-the-art 802.11p chipsets have
frequency errors of 5ppm or less (some
even on the ppb region)
Also, the distribution of total CFO error is
not uniform due to the additive effect
between the error in Tx and Rx

Slide 15
Conclusions
Some recommendations for 11p/NGV PHY simulation were given from a
V2X silicon provider’s perspective
Our goal is to help aligning our simulation methodologies to be able to take
the best possible decisions for 11bd
Ideally we should match the real-world performance as closely as possible
while maintaining a low simulation complexity
All information presented here is available for evaluation as open source
software
Comments or proposals for improvement of this work are always welcome
