In this paper we describe a relative vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) attitude estimation approach, an algorithm, experimental results and analysis of error sources. We also describe antenna system electromagnetic simulation results which allow to estimate how mutual influence of antennas decreases angular measurements accuracy. Experimental results prove workability of proposed approach.
