Abstract

A Reliable Communication Scheme for VANET Communication Environments

Highlights

The research interest in VANET has been evolving due to the continuous exploration of possibilities by introducing newer techniques and technologies for enabling vehicular communication for developing various applications for several purposes.A typical VANET scenario can be represented in terms of the location in which the VANET has been implemented
The possibility of the deployment of RSU or other networks facilitating V2I communication is comparatively more when compared to a rural scenario
Regardless of what network is being deployed for vehicular networking, since the access medium for all the participating vehicles is wireless there are higher probabilities for problems while connectivity. Such problems may be the based on network unavailability or high demand for network channels by a large number of participating vehicles to establish connectivity with the VANET infrastructure

Summary

Introduction

The research interest in VANET has been evolving due to the continuous exploration of possibilities by introducing newer techniques and technologies for enabling vehicular communication for developing various applications for several purposes. VANET proposals have started to consider the mobile communication networks such as GSM, CDMA, UMTS, LTE and WiMAX as a substitute for the previous infrastructure based vehicular networking techniques It is because of their wide connectivity in most of the places. Such problems may be the based on network unavailability or high demand for network channels by a large number of participating vehicles to establish connectivity with the VANET infrastructure Such situations can cause undesirable and unexpected network overload in some places where the need for infrastructure based connectivity increases rapidly and providing a lesser throughput. Several techniques such as cooperative MIMO would help in solving these issues, they are dependent on the nature of the network involved in the infrastructure. The cluster once formed retains a longer duration than in any other existing methods
