Abstract and Figures

Communication network plays an important role in providing safe vehicular movement. The main achievement of VANET is providing comfort and safety for passengers. In addition to that, various transactions like information on accident, road condition, petrol bank details, menu in the restaurant, and discount sales can be provided to the drivers and passengers. The speed and time in which the message is sent and received plays an essential part in the Intelligent Transport System (ITS). For this the VANET requires efficient and reliable methods for data communication. Most of the earlier research works deal with the transaction based services provided by road side unit. Moreover the earlier works concentrate on the Intelligent Transport System limited to the city areas where road side units are available in plenty. But this paper discusses the usefulness of VANET outside the city limit. Usually vehicles which move outside the city area do not get the response from the Road Side Unit (RSU) as its availability is limited. For efficient data communication, an attempt has been made to create a new clustering concept among the VANET nodes. The approach of the present paper considers the Simple Highway Vehicular model (SHWM), in which a new clustering model has been introduced. This paper also focuses the service discovery through VANET in the absence of road side units when the vehicles are moving inside the city or outside the city.

... The communication is either Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) or Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) in form of messages. [13] The messages provide facts like as position, speed, direction, and other vital information that aids in dealing with emergency situations. For suppose when an event like accident will happen or traffic congestion will be there, that will be detected by a vehicle. ...
... As a part of ITS, Inter-vehicle communication or transmission together with VANET systems has become the emerging research field. [13] VANETs are certain type of Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks (MANETs) and comprise of a bunch of vehicular nodes mobile on road lanes and able to communicate with each other with or without a fixed transport and communications infrastructure. ...

The communication in Vehicular Ad-hoc networks (VANET) is turning into a significant and famous exploration point in wireless networking because of both opportunities and difficulties it presents. VANETs are self-organizing, distributed transmission networks comprised of moving vehicles and represented by high�mobility nodes. The vehicular mobility models assume a critical part in assessing various difficulties like traffic, security, and client application-based challenges. Most of earlier studies created models that better relate to urban mobility. However, none of the previous researchers proposed a necessary level of mobility models for modeling and simulating low power and lossy networks i.e IEEE 802.15.4 LLN’s. The urban/city environments have many Road Side Units (RSU) which may even be utilized RPL protocol in routing of communication data. This paper proposes novel methodology to develop a unique urban mobility model for getting accurate control mechanism and efficient coordination among vehicles in vehicular networks. The proposed model results in efficient performance with better PDR, lower EED, little OH and better consumption of power.
... The backbone network connects the roadside units. Modeling communication between nodes in a VANET while vehicles are within or outside of a city is the most difficult challenge in a VANET [13]. V2V (vehicle-to-vehicle) communication is established and managed by a roadside unit. ...
... In Highway Mobility Model each node is considered as a vehicle and these vehicles can move freely in either direction. Designing communication between nodes in a VANET when vehicles are within or outside the city is the most difficult job in a VANET [13]. The V2V (vehicle-to-vehicle) communication is established utilizing a roadside unit. ...
... This V2V model reduced the message transmission time compared with the RSU model. Here, every vehicle has an On Board Unit (OBU) which is used to send and receive the messages through which each vehicle becomes a router to route the messages to the right destination [27][28][29]. In this model, the same Dedicated Short Rage Communication (DSRC) is used for message transmission. ...

The technology is growing towards smart communication through smart devices. This smart communication leads to the development of Vehicular Ad Hoc Network (VANET). These days each vehicle is acting as a smart device which could establish a smart communication among the vehicles. The growth of VANET communication passes through various stages such as RoadSide Unit (RSU), Vehicle to Vehicle (V2V), Cluster based, Internet of Vehicles (IoV), and Web VANET (WVANET) Communication models. All these advancements in VANET architecture provide a smart communication among the vehicles. The vital aim of VANET architecture is to provide an efficient and effective emergency and warning alerts to the vehicles so that the vehicle can take appropriate decisions without any delay to safeguard the safety of the passengers. However, it will be more reliable to the vehicles if the VANET architecture could provide a live emergency and warning alerts to the vehicles in well ahead of time. In order to provide live emergency and warning alerts the communication as well as the device should be smart. In this paper, we have developed a live emergency and warning alerts to the vehicles though android application. Each vehicle will have the android application installed on it, in which the entire live driving scenario is provided. Once, the live driving scenario is provided, the live emergency and warning alerts can be shown to the vehicles in well ahead of time. As live emergency alerts are shown to the vehicles, it will help the vehicles to take the right decision more effectively.
... This causes the development of several cryptographybased security models therefore; the security system can be achieved effectively. However, still, the limitation exists in WSN especially energy consumption because its ratio is cannot be predicted easily it is differed from one another [31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42]. Due to some reason, the WSN may go to failure some of the reason is WSN are residing in third party environments or sensor aging, battery draining, communication obstacles, etc. and this may lead to the possibility of WSN misbehavior. ...

The utilization of mobile sink in spite of its points of interest carries new difficulties to WSNs. The principle disputes are the position update of sink node to the hub. Every sensor hub should know about the sink position all together that it can move its information to the sink. Existing Flooding technique proposed that the portable sink needs to consistently spread its situation all through the system to advise sensor hubs regarding the sink position. In any case, visit position refreshes from the sink can prompt both maximum power utilization and amplified crashes in the network. To diminish the updation of sink position, different types of routing structures can be utilized. A routing mechanism dependent on the mobile sink is effective if it limits the power utilization and delays in the system network. The primary intention of the study is to design an energy embedded routing protocol based on optimal updation of the mobile sink. Here, the most recent sink position will be spared in the hubs developing the implicit environment. Accordingly, in Embedded routing, the position of the sink node is proliferated to the sensor hubs situated at the discs instead of the solicitation of hubs in the system. The remainder of the hubs can locate the most recent sink position by forwarding solicitation information to the closest disc. Based on the received information, the receiver of the message is identified. This will be performed by optimal fuzzy based clustering technique. The optimization can be done by Oppositional grey wolf optimization (OGWO) algorithm. The efficiency is analyzed by maximum network lifetime, minimum delay etc. The results will be analyzed and compared with existing routing protocols to ensure the efficiency.
... All kind of misbehaviours will report to standard nodes in VANET. For this motive, recognition of misbehaviors and the cruel vehicular nodes engaged in such misconducts is enormously necessary, in order to construct VANET a protected network [24,25,28,29]. ...

Broadcasting is the foremost crisis services of vehicular ad hoc network (VANET), because the amount of vehicles augments on a daily basis. In order to avoid traffic jam and accidents, the emergency messages will be transmitted to all the vehicles in the network. While VANETs are exposed to different sort of assault, there is require to accomplish the protection needs like message confidentiality, reliability, and validation. The validation procedure is assumed to be competent if it distinguishes negotiation nodes precisely by means of less complication, condensed validation postponement, and keying transparency. In this document, a trust-oriented validation format for cluster-oriented VANETs is projected. The presentation of the projected scheme is contrasted by existing procedure.

Mobile Ad-Hoc networks are highly dynamic networks characterized by the absence of physical infrastructure. Nodes of these networks functions as a routers which discovers and maintains the routes to other nodes in the network. In such networks, nodes are able to move and synchronize with their neighbors. Due to mobility, connections in the network can change dynamically and nodes can be added and removed at any time. In this paper, we are going to compare Mobile Ad-Hoc network routing protocols DSDV, AODV and DSR using network simulator NS2.34. We have compared the performance of three protocols together and individually too. The performance matrix includes PDR (Packet Delivery Ratio), Throughput, End to End Delay, Routing overhead. We are comparing the performance of routing protocols when packet size changes, when time interval between packet sending changes, when mobility of nodes changes.

VANET is a special class of Mobile Ad hoc Network. VANET is mainly used to model communication in a Vehicular environment where the vehicles are considered as VANET nodes with wireless links. In this paper an attempt has been made to create a new cluster model for efficient communication among the VANET nodes. For this purpose, taking the Simple Highway Vehicular model concept into consideration, a clustering model has been created. The proposed mobility model is called simple highway mobility model(SHWM). This paper focuses on the development of a clustering framework for communication among the VANET nodes. The various timings required for the formation of Clusters, Cluster head election time and Cluster head switching time are computed and presented. The proposed model can be used to characterize the Cluster Based Simple Highway Mobility Model (CBSHWM).

Research on vehicular ad hoc networks has focused mainly on efficient routing protocol design under conditions where there are relatively large numbers of closely spaced vehicles. These routing protocols are designed principally for urban areas with high node density and fully connected networks and are not suitable for packet delivery in a sparse, partially connected VANET. In this article, we examine the challenges of VANETs in sparse network conditions, review alternatives including epidemic routing, and propose a border node-based routing protocol for partially connected VANETs. The BBR protocol can tolerate network partition due to low node density and high node mobility. The performance of epidemic routing and BBR are evaluated with a geographic and traffic information- based mobility model that captures typical highway conditions. The simulation results show that under rural network conditions, a limited flooding protocol such as BBR performs well and offers the advantage of not relying on a location service required by other protocols proposed for VANETs.

Vehicular networks are a very promising technology to increase traffic safety and efficiency, and to enable numerous other applications in the domain of vehicular communication. Proposed applications for VANETs have very diverse properties and often require nonstandard communication protocols. Moreover, the dynamics of the network due to vehicle movement further complicates the design of an appropriate comprehensive communication system. In this article we collect and categorize envisioned applications from various sources and classify the unique network characteristics of vehicular networks. Based on this analysis, we propose five distinct communication patterns that form the basis of almost all VANET applications. Both the analysis and the communication patterns shall deepen the understanding of VANETs and simplify further development of VANET communication systems.

Vehicular Adhoc Network (VANET) is a special type of Intelligent Transport System (ITS), where the mobile nodes are cars, two wheelers, trucks, buses etc., that move on well organized and predefined roads in both direction at very high speed. Following traffic rules, the vehicles provide communication with each other directly (Inter Vehicle Communication -IVC) or indirectly through the Road Side Unit (RSU). Usually vehicles, which move outside the city area, do not get the response from the Road Side Unit, as its availability is limited in that area. For this purpose an attempt has been made to create a new clustering concept, which can be applied to the newly created Simple High Way Mobility Model, to increase the speed of the vehicle communication. Thus this paper focuses the performance of Packet Delivery Time, Packet Delay Time, Throughput, Normalized routing load, Broad casting time using IEEE 802.11p. This is compared with the values obtained for IEEE802.11 in VANET Environment.

Several protocols have been proposed to improve data accessibility and reduce query delay in MANETs. Some of these proposals have adopted the cooperative caching scheme, allowing multiple mobile hosts within a neighborhood to cache and share data items in their local caches. Cross-layer optimization has not been fully exploited to further improve the performance of cooperative caching in these proposals. In this paper we propose a cluster-based cooperative caching scheme. A cross-layer design approach is employed to further improve the performance of cooperative caching and prefetching schemes. The cross-layer information is maintained in a separate data structure and is shared among network protocol layers. The experimental results in the NS-2 simulation environment demonstrate that the proposed approach improves caching performance in terms of data accessibility, query delay and query distance compared to the caching scheme that does not adopt the cooperative caching strategy.

With the adoption of sensing technology, vehicles are able to gather information about driver's environment, like speed, temperature, moisture and road condition, etc. The state-of-the-art wireless technologies also provide vehicles with the ability of communicating to their neighboring vehicles on the road, as well as the static frameworks on the road side. Vehicular Sensor Network (VSN) is an emerging paradigm in vehicular networks. In this paper, we propose a new VSN scenario, Road Probing. The Road Side Unit (RSU) initiates the probing process and selects the passing by vehicles as probes to collect traffic and environment information. The selected vehicles sense the desired data and forward it back to the RSU in a multi-hop fashion. A dynamically growing one-dimension probing chain originated from the RSU is formed by participated vehicles as the probing process going on. A mobility profile based probe selection method is developed to improve this chain's connectivity as it's the key issue to assure the quality of data collection. The performance of Road Probing is demonstrated by simulation experiments.

Decentralized node admission is an essential and fundamental security service in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). It is needed to securely cope with dynamic membership and topology as well as to bootstrap other important security primitives (such as key management) and services (such as secure routing) without the assistance of any centralized trusted authority. An ideal admission technique must involve minimal interaction among MANET nodes, since connectivity can be unstable. Also, since MANETs are often composed of weak or resource-limited devices, admission must be efficient in terms of computation and communication. Most previously proposed admission protocols are prohibitively expensive and require heavy interaction among MANET nodes. In this paper, we focus on a common type of MANET that is formed on a temporary basis, and present a secure, efficient, and a fully noninteractive admission technique geared for this type of a network. Our admission protocol is based on secret sharing techniques using bivariate polynomials. We also present a new scheme that allows any pair of MANET nodes to efficiently establish an on-the-fly secure communication channel.

There are many environmental factors taking effects on the communication performance of routing protocols.However, in high-density urban areas, one of the important factors is vehicle-node density. This paper proposes the vehicle- node density parameter to improve the performance of AODV routing protocol and OLSR routing protocol under two typical mobile models in VANET. The performance of routing protocols is evaluated through OMNET++ platform.Simulation results indicate the improvement of performance of routing protocols according to increase the node density around the receiver properly and show that the adaptability of reactive routing protocol and proactive routing protocol with the vehicle-node density near the receiver is vary from different mobility models.
