Simulation based Analysis of Adhoc Routing Protocol in Urban and Highway Scenario of VANET

Abstract

VANET (Vehicular Adhoc Network) research field is growing very fast. It has to serves a wide range of applications under different scenario (City, Highway). It has various challenges to adopt the protocols that can serve in different topology and scenario. This paper presents a comparative study of the adhoc routing protocol in urban and highway scenario of VANET environments. The main objective of Vehicular Ad-Hoc Networks is to build a robust network between mobile vehicles so that vehicles can talk to each other for the safety of human beings. VANET hits the protocol's strength due to its highly dynamic features, thus in testing a protocol suitable for VANET implementation we have selected two different scenarios of traffic, and three adhoc routing protocols AODV, OLSR and DSR. Packet Delivery Ratio and End To End delay are the metrics used for performance analysis of the adhoc routing protocols.
