Abstract

ABSTRACT The rapid advancement in vehicular communication systems has necessitated the development of efficient and reliable power control algorithms to support 5G millimeter‐wave (mmWave) networks. This research evaluates the performance of the Adaptive Sidelink Open Loop Power Control (AS‐OLPC) algorithm in vehicular communication scenarios. Highlights the potential of 5G mmWave communication for meeting high‐speed, high‐bandwidth, and dependable communication needs for vehicle‐to‐infrastructure (V2I) applications in high‐mobility traffic scenarios. Using SUMO and ns‐3, we build a simulation‐based experimental setup to test and evaluate proposed scenarios. Three 5G millimeter wave use cases were offered for research. These use cases included greater CV penetration, dynamic mobility, and V2I packet size and data rate requirements. AS‐OLPC dynamically adjusts transmission power to channel conditions and vehicle motions to minimize interference and improve communication. This optimizes communication. The study uses mmWave channel models, sidelink communication protocols, and realistic vehicle motion patterns. In their 5G mmWave vehicle communication simulations, AS‐OLPC uses several key metrics. These measures include latency, packet loss, throughput, and signal‐to‐interference‐plus‐noise ratio (SINR).
