Improving Performance in Trust Based Multi-Link-Rat Communication for V2x Heterogeneous Vehicular Network

Abstract

The dynamic nature of vehicular networks imposes a lot of challenges in multi hop data transmission as links are vulnerable in their existence due to associated mobility of vehicles. It is very difficult to establish and maintain end-to-end connections in a vehicle ad hoc network (VANET) as a result of high vehicle speed, long inter-vehicle distance, and varying vehicle density. Here propose a distributed heterogeneous V2V communications algorithm that allows each vehicle to dynamically select the RAT that is more suitable at each point in time. Multi-link is the capability of a device to communicate using multiple wireless links simultaneously. Multi-RAT is the capability of a device to communicate using different RATs. To propose a Predictive Routing based on Markov Model (PRM) to ensure more reliable and timely data transmissions in VANETs. In the case of accident management, emergency messages may be sent to a pre-determined road rescue site upon the occurrence of an accident, such as a crash on the highway during a snow day and a car spontaneous combustion due to the stored explosives. PRM can facilitate the transmission of real-time information from vehicles to a road traffic controller for more efficient traffic management. Rather than using passive traffic detection through sensors, the real-time reports of traffic data through V2V and V2I can avoid the costs of installing and maintaining a large number of sensors.
