Oxford University Press (OUP): Policy A -Oxford Open Option A Zhang, D.; Yang, Z.; Raychoudhury, V.; Chen, Z.; Lloret, J. (2013) Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANETs) are a killer application of Mobile Adhoc Networks (MANETs), which exchange data among vehicles and vehicles to roadside infrastructures by routing. To save energy, various routing protocols for VANETs have been proposed in recent years. However, VANETs impose challenging issues to routing. These issues consist of dynamical road topology, various road obstacles, high vehicle movement, and the fact that the vehicle movement is constrained on roads and traffic conditions. Moreover, the movement is significantly influenced by driving behaviors and vehicle categories. To this end, we incorporate them into routing and propose ERBA for VANETs -an energy-efficient routing protocol. ERBA classifies vehicles into several categories, and then leverages vehicle movement trends to make routing recommendation. It predicts the movement trends by current directions and next directions after going through the road intersections. With the vehicular category information, the driving behavior patterns, the distance between the current sections and the next intersections, ERBA propagates information among vehicles with less energy consumption. The proposed scheme is validated by real urban scenarios extracted from ShanghaiGrid project. Experimental results show that ERBA outperforms the compared routing protocols with respect to the end-end delay, the packet delivery ratio and the path duration time.

“…Proactive ad hoc http://jwcn.eurasipjournals.com/content/2012/1/316 routing protocols such as the Optimized Link State Routing Protocol (OLSR) were also extended with VANET optimizations. The movement predication-based routing framework adjusted OLSR to prefer most stable paths instead of shortest paths [13], while the authors of [14] proposes DHT-OLSR, combining OLSR with techniques from the domain of peer-to-peer networking: dynamic clustering and distributed hash table routing. The third class of existing ad hoc protocols, the hybrid routing protocols such as the Zone Routing Protocol (ZRP), have also been optimized for the VANET scenario.…”

Several approaches can be identified in the domain of vehicular ad hoc networks (VANET). Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) networking and non-IP geographical networking can each fulfill a subset of the application requirements. In general, a combination of both techniques is proposed to meet all of the application requirements. In this case, packets of one VANET routing protocol are encapsulated inside packets of another. This tunneling, together with the position service required for non-IP geographical unicasting, makes such a combined solution rather complex, and hence more challenging to implement, debug, and maintain. In this article, a new VANET approach is presented that relies on the key assumptions that geo-anycast functionality is not required by the applications, and that geographic unicasting is not needed when IP-based unicasting is provided. This enables the adoption of an IPv6-only VANET solution, removing the need for tunneling and position services. New techniques are required to support IPv6-based geo-broadcasting. In this article, it is described how addresses should be assigned, how geographical data can be incorporated in the IPv6 address, how the other IPv6 header fields can be used to contain additional VANET information, and how routing should be handled to guarantee that no modifications are required to the application units. The implementation of the proposed techniques is described, and the correct functionality of the solutions is experimentally demonstrated. Finally, to prove the added value compared to current state-of-the-art propositions, the presented solution is stacked up against the recently released ETSI standards TS 102 636-4-1 (geographical addressing and forwarding) and TS 102 636-6-1 (transmission of IPv6 packets over GeoNetworking protocols).

“…As far as the link lifetime estimation methods are concerned, related studies can largely be divided into three categories: 1) methods that assume knowledge of the other nodes' positions and velocity vectors (such as [2], [7], [8], or [9]); 2) analytical methods based on the extraction of lifetime distributions (such as [10] or [11]); and 3) methods that make use of some link quality metric (such as [12]- [16] or [17]). …”

Abstract-One of the most distinguishing features of vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) is the increased mobility of the nodes. This results in the existence of transient communication links, which degrade the performance of developed protocols. Established routes frequently become invalid, and existing communication flows are interrupted, incurring delay and additional overhead. In this paper, we aim to provide a metric to support the design of networks that can proactively adapt to a constantly changing topology. We present a method that produces a linklifetime-related metric capable of capturing the remaining time for which a link can be used for efficient communication. The metric is intended to be used to optimize route construction with respect to lifetime. We propose a cross-layer approach, which utilizes physical layer information, and formulate the relevant parameter estimation problem. Contrary to existing work, the method does not assume knowledge of the transmission power or the nodes' position and velocity vectors, or adoption of a specific mobility model, whereas the estimates go beyond describing the tendency of link quality. We achieve this by employing a unified model that accurately captures the effect of the radio propagation and the underlying structure of vehicle movement on the temporal dependence of the quality of a wireless mobile link. More specifically, the model takes into account the inherent nonlinearities arising and, most importantly, includes the minimum distance that will be achieved between two vehicles on the course of their movement, which is shown to play a crucial role in the link duration. We present an analytical framework, which quantifies the probability of correctly identifying the longest living link between two given links, based on the estimates. Utilization of the estimates is shown to lead to optimal performance under ideal channel conditions. The proposed scheme outperforms existing affinity-based schemes, achieving to opt for links that last up to 35% longer under the presence of shadow fading. Finally, we discuss the integration of the proposed estimation method in routing and demonstrate that our estimations can be beneficial, leading to the construction of routes that consistently last longer than routes that have been constructed based on the smoothed signal-to-noise ratio metric.Index Terms-Link lifetime estimation, link residual time (LRT), vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs), vehicle-to-vehicle communications.
