Various location-centric routing protocols have been suggested in literature for road safety ITS applications considering urban and highway traffic environment. This paper characterizes vehicular environments based on real traffic data and investigates the evolution of location-centric data dissemination. The current study is carded out with three main objectives: (i) to analyze the impact of dynamic traffic environment on the design of data dissemination techniques, (ii) to characterize location-centric data dissemination in terms of functional and qualitative behavior of protocols, properties, and strengths and weaknesses, and (iii) to find some future research directions in information dissemination based on location. Vehicular traffic environments have been classified into three categories based on physical characteristics such as speed, inter-vehicular distance, neighborhood stability, traffic volume, etc. Real traffic data is considered to analyze on-road traffic environments based on the measurement of physical parameters and weather conditions. Design issues are identified in incorporating physical parameters and weather conditions into data dissemination. Functional and qualitative characteristics of location-centric techniques are explored considering urban and highway environments. Comparative analysis of location-centric techniques is carded out for both urban and highway environments individually based on some unique and common characteristics of the environments. Finally, some future research directions are identified in the area based on the detailed investigation of traffic environments and location-centric data dissemination techniques.展开更多

Our approach is different from those existing in the literature. We first propose a hybrid clustering scheme: in the first phase we partition the network in cliques using an existing energy-efficient clustering protocol. Next the set of clusterheads of cliques are in their turn partitioned using an energy-efficient hierarchical clustering. Our approach to con-sume less energy falls into the category of energy-efficient clustering algorithm in which the clusterhead is located in the central area of the cluster. Since each cluster is a clique, each sensor is at one hop to the cluster head. This contributes to use less energy for transmission to and from the clusterhead, comparatively to multi hop clustering. Moreover we use the strategy of asleep-awake to minimize energy consumption during extra clique broadcasts.展开更多

Both core applications require a high data transmission capacity over u VDTNs. In addition, the connection between any two vehicles in u VDTNs is intermittent and opportunistic. Intermittent data dissemination over u VDTNs is a stringent and challenging issue. In this paper,we propose Intermittent Geocast Routing(IGR). For the first step, IGR has to estimate the active connection time interval via the moving directions and velocities between any two vehicles. Second, the throughput function for u VDTNs is fitted by building a wavelet neural network traffic model. Third, the throughput function within the effective connection time interval is integrated to obtain the forwarding capability estimation of the node. Fourth, a high-efficiency geocast routing algorithm using the node forwarding capability for u VDTNs is designed. Finally, IGR is simulated on the opportunistic Network Environment simulator. Experimental results show that IGR can greatly improve the packet delivery ratio, transmission delay, delay jitter, and packet loss rate compared with the state of the art.展开更多
