This letter proposes a novel proactive congestion control policy for vehicular ad-hoc networks, in which each vehicle's communication parameters are adapted based on their individual application requirements. Contrary to other approaches, where transmission resources tend to be assigned based on system-level performance metrics, the technique proposed in this paper aims to individually satisfy the...
Automotive networking on US highways is moving into high gear. Smart cars, connected vehicles, intelligent transportation systems (ITS), vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANET), and vehicle telematics represent parallel and overlapping technologies and services that will define the future of the American roadway systems. The integration of computing technology and expanding communication services is driving...
Directional antennas in Ad hoc networks offer more benefits than the traditional antennas with omni-directional mode. With directional antennas, it can increase the spatial reuse of the wireless channel. A higher gain of directional antennas makes terminals a further transmission range and fewer hops to the destination. This paper presents the design, implementation and simulation results of a multi-channel...
Evaluation of vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANETs) over real environments is still a remaining issue for most researchers. There are some works dealing with common 802.11 analysis over real vehicular environments, which carry out performance tests to measure the quality of the communication channel and justify results according to physical and MAC conditions. There are only a few works regarding multi-hop...
Directional antennas can increase the spatial reuse of the wireless channels and reach a higher antenna gain. This paper presents the design, implementation and simulation results of a multi-channel medium access control protocols for high density vehicular ad hoc networks using directional antennas with local beam tables. Simulation shows that our protocol has a higher throughput than the existing...
The main benefit of vehicular communication is seen in active safety systems that increase passenger safety by exchanging warning messages between vehicles. Other applications and private services are also permitted in order to lower the cost and to encourage vehicular network deployment and adoption. The allocation of 75 MHz in the 5.9 GHz frequency band licensed for dedicated short range communications...
In vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANETs), mobility is one of key characteristics that have a significant effect on routing performance because it causes dynamic changes of network topology. In this paper, we propose a contention based forwarding protocol that exploits geographic or virtual location information. A node that is closer to the destination node has a higher priority in competing for the wireless...
