Beam alignment for millimeter wave (mm Wave) vehicular communications is challenging due to the high mobility of vehicles. Recent studies have proposed some beam switching techniques at Road Side Unit (RSU) for vehicle to infrastructure (V2I) communications, employing initial position and speed information of vehicles, that are sent through Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC) to the RSU. However, inaccuracies of the provided information lead to beam misalignment. Some beam design parameters are suggested in the literature to combat this effect. But how these parameters should be tuned? Here, we evaluate the effect of all these parameters, and propose a beam design efficiency metric to perform beam alignment in the presence of the estimation errors, and to improve the performance by choosing the right design parameters.
