AODV routing protocol implementation in VANET

Abstract

VANET is a scalable and unbounded network which is completely independent from the number of nodes. In VANET, communication is done between V2V (Vehicle to Vehicle) and V2I (Vehicle to Infrastructure). In both type of communications nodes are gathering information from other nodes or from RSU which must be trustworthy. VANETs is having different security requirement for governing proper vehicular communication. VANET are specially design for nodes having high mobility with unbounded network structure and want to communicate time critical information in a secure way. There is a two category in routing protocol which involve in this communication: Proactive and Reactive. AODV is a demand based reactive routing protocol. AODV only establish the route when any need occurs. It is having route request-response mechanism through which it send the request for finding the route and based on received response it establish the optimal path. In this paper work of Reactive routing protocol AODV is presented with the implementation methods using different simulators like SUMO, MOVE and NS2. Here AODV implementation is presented with the details comparative result analysis using different parameters like Packet Drop Rate, Throughput, Average End to End Delay, Jitter and Network Routing Load.
