Performance Evaluation of Ad Hoc Multicast Routing Protocols to Facilitate Video Streaming in VANETS
Muhammad Danish Khan, Arshad Shaikh

TL;DR
This paper evaluates the performance of two multicast routing protocols, MAODV and PUMA, in VANETs for video streaming, focusing on QoS metrics under variable traffic conditions.
Contribution
It provides a comparative analysis of MAODV and PUMA protocols specifically for real-time video multicast in VANETs, highlighting PUMA's superior performance.
Findings
PUMA outperforms MAODV in throughput and PDR.
PUMA shows lower end-to-end delay and routing load.
Performance varies with network scenarios and traffic types.
Abstract
Vehicular Ad Hoc Network (VANET) is a type of mobile ad hoc network (MANET) that facilitates communication among vehicles. VANET provides inter-vehicular communications to serve for the application like road traffic safety and traffic efficiency. Infotainment service has been an anticipating trend in VANETs, and video streaming has a high potential in VANET. Although, this emerging technology is trending, there are still some issues like QoS provisions, decentralized medium access control, node coverage area, and finding and maintaining routes due to highly dynamic topology. These issues make multicast communication difficult in VANETs. Numerous routing protocols and routing strategies have been projected to cope with these issues. Lots of work has taken place to assess and measure the performances of these protocols in VANETs but these protocols are rarely analyzed for performance…
