A Survey on Vehicular Ad hoc Networks

Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering) - Year 2013, Vol 15, Issue 4

Abstract

 Vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANETs), a subclass of mobile ad hoc network (MANET), is a promising approach for the intelligent transport system (ITS). VANET allows vehicles to form a self-organized  network without the need for a permanent infrastructure. As the VANET has a potential in improving road  safety, real time traffic update and other travel comforts, it turns attention of the researcher. Though VANET  and MANET shares some common characteristics like self-organized network, dynamic topology, ad hoc nature  etc, VANET differs from MANET by challenges, application, architecture, power constraint and mobility  patterns, so routing protocols used in MANET are not applicable with VANET. New routing strategy for VANET  has been proposed by many researchers in recent year. This paper provides focus on the various aspects of  VANET like architecture, characteristic, challenges, glimpse of routing protocols, and simulation models used  for VANET.
