Abstract

The cooperative vehicle safety systems (CVSs) of Vehicular Ad-hoc Network (VANET) provides vital vehicle tracking information. In CVS, the physical state information about the vehicles is transmitted over a shared wireless channel in order to let the neighbors to track the location of the vehicle and predict possible accidents. However, the physical state information’s are beneficial only if they delivered in a timely manner. Thus, the need of efficient and robust routing protocol arises in order to enable more efficient communication. Thus, in this paper an efficient on demand routing protocol is employed in the communication sub component of the CVS system to generate and transmit the location information of the vehicle rapidly. The performance of the proposed approach is analyzed in terms of energy consumption, throughput, packet drop, and delay and packet delivery ratio. Thus, the results indicate that the proposed approach provides efficient and robust communication over VANET.
