Abstract-Simulation environments are an important tool for the evaluation of new concepts in networking. The study of mobile ad hoc networks depends on understanding protocols from simulations, before these protocols are implemented in a real-world setting. To produce a real-world environment within which an ad hoc network can be formed among a set of nodes, there is a need for the development of realistic, generic and comprehensive mobility, and signal propagation models. In this paper, we propose the design of a mobility and signal propagation model that can be used in simulations to produce realistic network scenarios. Our model allows the placement of obstacles that restrict movement and signal propagation. Movement paths are constructed as Voronoi tessellations with the corner points of these obstacles as Voronoi sites. Our mobility model also introduces a signal propagation model that emulates properties of fading in the presence of obstacles. As a result, we have developed a complete environment in which network protocols can be studied on the basis of numerous performance metrics. Through simulation, we show that the proposed mobility model has a significant impact on network performance, especially when compared with other mobility models. In addition, we also observe that the performance of ad hoc network protocols is effected when different mobility scenarios are utilized.

Together, the Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC) and Vehicular Ad hoc Network (VANET) technologies provide a unique opportunity to develop various types of communication-based automotive applications. In this chapter, we focus primarily on four major aspects: (a) description of communication-based automotive applications, (b) investigating the application characteristics and network attributes, (c) classifying the applications into categories, and (d) defining market perspectives and deployment challenges for each class of applications. To date, many applications have been identified by the automotive research community. From a value or customer benefit perspective, these applications can be roughly organized into three major classes: safety-oriented, convenience-oriented, and commercial-oriented, and they vary significantly in terms of application characteristics. We begin by describing communication-based automotive applications that span both the Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) and Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) communication modes. We follow a systematic classification methodology for such applications that goes through two major steps: characterization and classification. We focus on a rich subset of representative applications and characterize them with respect to plausible application-and networkingrelated attributes. The characterization process not only strengthens our understanding of the applications but also sets the stage for the classification step, since it reveals numerous Vehicular Networking Edited by
