“…Some of VANET applications, such as Adaptive Cruise Control and Cooperative Intersection Safety, require a certain degree of positioning accuracy in order to be able to function properly. For new research tendencies and state-of-the-art of VANETs see [37][38][39]. Critical safety applications though, such as the Vehicle Collision Warning and the Cooperative Awareness applications, which enhance the driver's perception and knowledge of the road and the environment, require very precise and reliable localization system.…”

“…Among them, position based protocols have been proven to be superior and outperform the other protocols since there is no requirement to establish and save a route between source and destination during the routing process which is suitable for dynamic nature of vehicular networks [12,13]. In addition, they improve scalability and control message overhead as compared with others routing protocols [14]. Moreover, the performance of various routing protocols (such as AODV [15] and DSR [16]) is compared against the position-based routing protocols in a number of studies such as [17,18], which confirm that position-based routing protocols are the most promising routing paradigm for VANETs.…”

Recently, vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) have received more attention in both academic and industry settings. One of the challenging issues in this domain is routing protocols. VANETs' unique characteristics such as high mobility with the constraint of road topology, fast network topology changes, frequently disconnected networks, and time-sensitive data exchange makes it difficult to design an efficient routing protocol for routing data in vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-toinfrastructure communications. Designing routing protocols for V2V commutations are more challenging due to the absence of infrastructure nodes in the communication procedure. They become even more challenging, when they get benefit from dynamic anchor computation method in which the anchor nodes (junctions or basic nodes for routing) are dynamic in their routing procedure. Positionbased routing protocols have been proven to be superior and outperform the other protocols since there is no requirement to establish and save a route between source and destination during the routing process which is suitable for dynamic nature of vehicular networks. In this paper, the performance of V2V dynamic anchor position-based routing protocols, which are proposed for the most challenging condition of packet routing in VANET, are investigated and evaluated under two different scenarios (i.e. various vehicle densities and velocities) through NS-2. The obtained results are then illustrated based on average delay, packet delivery ratio and routing overhead as routing performance indicators. Our objective is to provide a quantitative assessment of the applicability of these protocols in different vehicular scenarios. The comparison provided in this paper makes the research contribution of this survey paper quite higher than a regular survey paper only with explanations.Keywords Vehicular ad hoc networks Á Position-based routing Á Anchor-based Á Vehicle-to-vehicle

“…For V2V, outstanding performance results have been exhibited by position-based routing as the routes between the source and the destination do not need to be established and saved, which satisfies the condition of dynamic changes in VANETs [14,15]. Furthermore, in comparison to other types of routing protocols, such protocols support scalable networks with reduced control message overhead [16]. Finally, they are simple because they apply the global positioning system (GPS) technology to determine the exact positions of a vehicle with respect to its longitude and latitude [17].…”

Traffic management at road intersections is a complex requirement that has been an important topic of research and discussion. Solutions have been primarily focused on using vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs). Key issues in VANETs are high mobility, restriction of road setup, frequent topology variations, failed network links, and timely communication of data, which make the routing of packets to a particular destination problematic. To address these issues, a new dependable routing algorithm is proposed, which utilizes a wireless communication system between vehicles in urban vehicular networks. This routing is position-based, known as the maximum distance on-demand routing algorithm (MDORA). It aims to find an optimal route on a hop-by-hop basis based on the maximum distance toward the destination from the sender and sufficient communication lifetime, which guarantee the completion of the data transmission process. Moreover, communication overhead is minimized by finding the next hop and forwarding the packet directly to it without the need to discover the whole route first. A comparison is performed between MDORA and ad hoc on-demand distance vector (AODV) protocol in terms of throughput, packet delivery ratio, delay, and communication overhead. The outcome of the proposed algorithm is better than that of AODV.
