Description
Summary:The vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) are an example of mobile networks, which utilizes dedicated short-range communication (DSRC) to establish a wireless connection between cars, and their primary purpose is to provide more security and comfort for passengers. These networks utilize wireless communications and vehicular technology to collect and disseminate traffic information, and it is required to be delivered to all vehicles on the network reliably and quickly. One of the major challenges raised in VANETs is that the communication path between the source and destination nodes is disconnected due to the dynamic nature of the nodes in this network, and the reconnection process of nodes through the new path reduces the performance of network. This paper presents a highway routing protocol to overcome some of the challenges of these networks including routing cost, delay, packet delivery rate, and overhead. The NS2 is used for simulation, and the performance of the proposed protocol is compared with the VMaSC-LTE and DBA-MAC protocols. The results of the simulation indicated that the proposed protocol outperforms the other two protocols in terms of delay, packet delivery rate, and routing overhead.
