In this paper, we present a location-based routing algorithm with cluster-based flooding for vehicle to vehicle communication. We consider a motorway environment with associated high mobility and contrast and compare positionbased and non-position-based routing strategies, along with a limiting function for flood mechanisms in reactive ad-hoc protocols. The performance of Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) and Ad-Hoc On-demand Distance Vector Routing (AODV) for non-positional and Location Routing Algorithm with Cluster-Based Flooding (LOU-CBF) for positional algorithms are considered. Our proposed flooding limiting technique is compared with AODV and DSR by simulation. The mobility of the vehicles on a motorway using a microscopic traffic model developed in OPNET has been used to evaluate average Route Discovery (RD) time, End-toEnd Delay (EED), Routing Load, Routing Overhead, Overhead, and Delivery Ratio.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
