description Despite not being designed for vehicular use, the high bandwidth offered by IEEE 802.11ad makes it an enticing proposition for opportunistic Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) communication.Because it operates at a high frequency of 60 GHz, 802.11ad suffers from high attenuation. To combat this, it uses antenna directionality to improve communication range. Directionality is primarily achieved by selecting an antenna configuration, or sector, from a list of preconfigured ones.Choosing a good antenna sector is difficult in V2I environments, as the fast mobility involved affects the alignment between communicating nodes.This article describes a dataset that supports analysis of Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) 802.11ad device behavior in an experimental V2I communication scenario. More specifically, the dataset summarizes the results from a set of experiments in which a mobile client drove around a stationary Access Point (AP) while downloading data from it. Information regarding the client's mobility, control frames exchanged, and achieved throughput was collected.This dataset can support realistic analysis of 802.11ad COTS equipment behaviors, such as antenna selection and communication range, in a vehicular communication scenario.
