    Vehicle to Vehicle (V2V) communication systems enable vehicles to communicate with each other and use the shared information to make safety related decisions. However, the safety improvement of the current V2V systems only benefits V2V-enabled objects in the V2V network. The Pedestrian Automatic Emergency Braking System (PAEB) can utilize onboard sensors to detect pedestrians and make safety related actions so it benefits the individual vehicle and the pedestrians detected by its PAEB. To further improve pedestrian safety, the idea for integrating the capabilities of V2V and PAEB (V2V-PAEB) has been proposed, which allows the information of pedestrians detected by onboard sensors of a vehicle to be shared in the V2V network. A V2V-PAEB enabled vehicle uses not only its onboard sensors, but also received V2V messages from others to detect potential collisions with pedestrians and make better safety related decisions. In this paper, a Matlab/Simulink based simulation model of V2V-PAEB system is presented for demonstrating the proper architecture and information processing processes, and for providing the quick start of developing a better simulation model of V2V-PAEB. The proposed model has also been tested in PreScan simulation environment.
