Abstract

In the Philippines, the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) uses closed-circuit television (CCTV) to manually monitor and analyze traffic situations. However, this solution is tedious and limited to manpower resources. A possible method that can be used to analyze traffic siutations is through the use of vehicular ad hoc network (VANET) simulations. A VANET is a network consisting of moving vehicles as nodes. This network can be used as a medium for information dissemination. Two important factors in VANETs are routing protocols which allow mobile nodes to exchange data from each other and mobility models which represent the behavior and movement of the mobile nodes. This paper focuses on using VANET simulation to recreate traffic scenarios in Manila, Philippines and to determine the most efficient combination of mobility model and routing protocol based on the realistic scenarios.
