Roadside Units (RSUs), which enable the vehicles-to-infrastructure communication, are deployed along the roadside to handle the growing communication demands as the number of vehicles increases. How to optimally deploy the RSUs and efficiently use them to enhance the vehicular network performance are important problems in the RSU-aided opportunistic networks. In order to solving these problems, we...
Opportunistic contact between moving vehicles is one of the key features in vehicular delay tolerant networks (VDTNs) that critically influences the design of routing schemes and the network throughput. Due to prohibitive costs to collect enough realistic contact recodes, to the best of our knowledge, little experiment work has been conducted to study the opportunistic contact patterns in large scale...
Modeling complicated vehicular mobility behavior and the associated network connectivity in large scale vehicular ad hoc network has been a challenging problem for the past several years. In this paper, we carry out extensive experiments involving thousands of operational taxies in Shanghai and Beijing cities. Studying the taxi traces on the vehicular connectivity, we observe that the vehicle isolation...
To provide communication services in delay-tolerant networks (DTNs) where there may exist no end-to-end paths between mobile node pairs, a variety of relaying and routing algorithms have been proposed under the assumption that the mobile nodes are homogeneously distributed in the network with the same contact rate and delivery cost. However, experimental data have revealed the heterogeneous contact...
Vehicular Delay Tolerant Networks (VDTN) are used to distribute a large amount of mobile data by high-capacity device-to-device communication. Given a number of available vehicles in VDTN, the current vehicular data sharing models always utilize all of them to achieve the best effect, failing to balance the performance gained and cost of employing them. Taking the cost into account, we study the problem...
