Analysis and Design of VANET Protocols for Srinagar City

TL;DR

This paper analyzes VANET protocols in Srinagar City by simulating their performance using SUMO and NS-3, focusing on routing protocols like AODV, DSDV, and DSR in a high-mobility environment.

Contribution

It presents a simulation framework for VANET protocols using SUMO and NS-3 specific to Srinagar City, evaluating routing protocol performance in a realistic mobility scenario.

Findings

Performance evaluation of AODV, DSDV, DSR protocols in VANETs

Use of SUMO for realistic traffic mobility modeling

Assessment of routing protocols in high-mobility urban environment

Abstract

Vehicular ad-hoc network (VANET) is subclass of mobile ad-hoc network which is vehicle to vehicle and vehicle to infrastructure communication environment, where nodes involve themselves as servers and/or clients to exchange and share information. VANET have some unique characteristics like high dynamic topology, frequent disconnections, restricted topology etc, so it need special class of routing protocol. To simulate the VANET scenarios we require two types of simulators, traffic simulator for generating traffic and network simulator. In this project I created a sample scenario of VANET for AODV, DSDV, DSR routing protocols. I have used SUMO for generating traffic mobility files and NS-3 for testing performance of routing protocols on the mobility files created using Traffic simulator SUMO.
