Recent advances in development of Wireless Communication in Vehicular Ad-hoc Network (VANET) has provided emerging platform for industrialists and researchers. Vehicular ad-hoc networks are multi-hop networks with no fixed infrastructure. It comprises of moving vehicles communicating with each other. One of the main challenges in VANET is to route the data efficiently from source to destination...

In vehicular ad hoc networks (VANET), it is possible to locate and track a vehicle based on its transmissions, during communication with other vehicles or the road-side infrastructure. This type of tracking leads to threats on the location privacy of the vehicle’s user. In this paper, we study the problem of providing location privacy in VANET by allowing vehicles to prevent tracking of their b...

In this paper, we present an analytical and simulated study on the performance of adaptive vehicular ad hoc networks (VANET) priority based on Transmission Distance Reliability Range (TDRR) and data type. VANET topology changes rapidly due to its inherent nature of high mobility nodes and unpredictable environments. Therefore, nodes in VANET must be able to adapt to the ever changing environmen...

Since the last few years VANET have received increased attention as the potential technology to enhance active and preventive safety on the road, as well as travel comfort. One of the main challenges in Vehicular ad hoc network is of searching and maintaining an effective route for transporting data information. Researchers and developers have built VANET simulation software to allow the study ...

With the sharp and constant increase of aoutomative market, traffic accidents, finding a parking lot in a new city and traffic jams are becoming the serious issues that put emphasis on the evolution of Vehicular Ad hoc Networks(VANET). As a result of which VANETs receive the considerable attention of the scientific community. Moreover, communication between vehicles is used for safety, comfort ...

Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANET) is a subclass of Mobile ad hoc networks which provides a distinguished approach for Intelligent Transport System (ITS). The survey of routing protocols in VANET is important and necessary for smart ITS. T his paper discusses the advantages / disadvantages and the applications of various routing protocols for vehicular ad hoc networks. It explores the motivation...

Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANET) has great potential to improve road safety and increase passenger convenience in vehicles. On the other hand, since they use an open medium for communication, they are exposed to several threats that influence the reliability of these features. The need for a robust VANET networks is strongly dependent on their security and privacy features, which will be discu...

Vehicular Ad Hoc Network (VANET) is appeared to be a new technology to integrate the susceptibility of vastly employed wireless networks to vehicles. The idea is to attain the ubiquitous connectivity for vehicles either through efficient vehicle-to-vehicle or vehicle-to-infrastructure communication that enables the Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). In order to design a suitable and effi...

The Vehicular Adhoc network is the emerging research area which makes a phrase ‘Network on the wheel”. VANET is a collection of communication vehicles to broadcast desired information. In this paper performance of three routing protocols namely Adhoc On Demand Distance Vector Routing (AODV), Destination Sequence Distance Vector (DSDV) and VANET Radio Broadcasting Protocol (VANETRBC) is compared...

In this paper, we present a reputation assisted trust management mechanism for vehicular ad hoc network (VANET) using privacy preserving trusted group formation. In a VANET, vehicles or road side units can be malicious or malfunction making security essential. A distributed trust management provides a lightweight security alternative to existing security techniques especially in VANET. The trus...
