VANET routing Protocols :Implementation and Analysis Using NS3 and SUMO

Abstract

The emerging new form of mobile adhoc network VANETNetwork is exemplifiedby fast and drastic changes in topology over a shorter period of time. These two features have a significant impact on the efficiency ofrouting protocols used in these networks. The evaluation of various VANET routing protocols provides great feedback on the efficiency of the network. The efficacy of AODV, OLSR, DSDV and DSR protocols is evaluated in this analysis, within the VANET intersection. The movement patterns of vehicles are generated with SUMO and the simulator is NS3.Considering VANET's high velocity, frequent disassociation and highly evolving topology, the major challenge is to create a routing protocol that is more appropriate to efficiently routing packet to their end destination. System of measurementsuch as power consumption, packet distribution factor, average performance as well as maximum end-to-end delay being calculated
