Utilizing the characteristics of higher order multipath (HOMP) results in a significant localization error. Therefore, distinguishing between FOMPs and HOMPs is an important task. The previous works used traditional methods based on a deterministic threshold to accomplish this task. Unfortunately, these methods are complicated and insufficiently accurate. This paper proposes an efficient method based on supervised learning to distinguish more accurately between the propagated FOMP and HOMP of millimeter-Wave Vehicle-to-Vehicle communication in an urban scenario. Ray tracing technique based on Shoot and Bounce Ray (SBR) is used to generate the dataset’s features including received power, propagation time, the azimuth angle of arrival (AAOA), and elevation angle of arrival (EAOA). A statistical analysis based on the probability distribution function (PDF) is presented first to study the selected features’ impact on the classification process. Then, six supervised classifiers, namely Decision Tree, Naive Bayes, Support Vector Machine, K-Nearest Neighbors, Random Forest, and artificial neural network, are trained and tested, and their performance is compared in terms of HOMP misclassification. The effect of the considered features on the classifiers’ performance is further investigated. Our results showed that all the proposed classifiers provided an acceptable classification performance. The proposed ANN showed the best performance, whereas the NB was the worst. In fact, the HOMP misclassification error varied between 2.3 and 16.7. The EAOA exhibited the most significant influence on classification performance, while the AAOA was the least. © 2023 by the authors. date: 2023 publisher: MDPI official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85153877112&doi=10.3390%2fwevj14040109&partnerID=40&md5=a3d8d66f8b81aecae8d1465f70ca1b37 id_number: 10.3390/wevj14040109 full_text_status: none publication: World Electric Vehicle Journal volume: 14 number: 4 refereed: TRUE issn: 20326653 citation: Bakhuraisa, Yaser A. and Abd Aziz, Azlan B. and Geok, Tan K. and Abu Bakar, Norazhar B. and Jamian, Saifulnizan B. and Mustakim, Fajaruddin B.
