Performance evaluation of various MANET routing protocols for adaptability in VANET environment

摘要

Vehicular ad hoc network (VANET) is emerging as one of the challenging research area because of the heavy dependency of human being into vehicles which tends to develop an intelligent transport system. VANET is treated as an extension of mobile ad hoc network (MANET) due to its behavior and its working mode. VANET is emerging as a new powerful tool to provide safety and security to the human beings during the time of traveling from one place to another. Routing is one of the challenging tasks for both MANET and VANET due to the frequent change in the topology. In this paper, we are evaluating the adaptability of existing MANET routing protocols for VANET. This paper analyze that what is the impact the vehicle density and speed on the packet delivery ratio, normalized routing load, average end-to-end delay, average throughput, average path length and average loss rate, which will help to design a new routing protocol or to have some improvement in the existing routing protocols.
