Detecting Malicious Vehicles and Regulating Traffic in VANET using RAODV Protocol

Abstract

In this paper, traffic control is achieved by maintaining the distance between the vehicles and the defined malicious vehicles are isolated and further communication is stopped with the malicious vehicle. The existing Ad-hoc On Demand Distance Vector (AODV) protocol has been suitably modified to achieve the above mentioned road safety measures and has been made as Robust AODV protocol (RAODV). RAODV was analyzed using the performance metrics Packet delivery ratio, Dropped packets, average End_to_End delay and Routing Overhead to show that it achieves the goals presented above.
