Modeling and Analysis of Priority-Based Distributed Access Control in Vehicular Networks

Abstract

This paper analyzes priority-based distributed access control in vehicular networks. Characterizing the spatial correlation between vehicles, users, and roads, this paper uses a Cox point process to model vehicles and users, respectively. Then, this paper proposes that each vehicle transmits if it has the highest priority among all of its neighbors. Using the stochastic geometry framework, this paper derives the probability that a typical vehicle is retained to transmit. Then, this paper derives a second-order moment measure of the retained point process to evaluate the signal-to-interference (SIR) distribution of a typical user. The derived SIR distribution is compared to the system-level simulation of the SIR distribution of a typical user. IEEE
