Review of vehicular ad hoc network communication models including WVANET (Web VANET) model and WVANET future research directions

摘要

The most ever growing research field is vehicular ad hoc network. This prominent research field has the widely known communication models such as RoadSide Unit Communication, Vehicle to Vehicle Communication, and Cluster based Communication models. In addition to that M. Milton Joe and B. Ramakrishnan et al. have proposed a new communication model known as WVANET (Web VANET) for vehicular ad hoc network communication. The authors portray that WVANET will be the everlasting research field in future. This WVANET (Web VANET) communication model is fundamentally different from other communication models as it makes use of web signals to disseminate the messages among vehicles. Of course, each communication model in VANET will have its own various pros and cons. This paper provides the overall review of all the existing communication models in VANET and in addition to that WVANET (Web VANET) communication model is also presented. Further this paper discusses the various future research that can be done in WVANET (Web VANET) communication model.
