The new Compacted Area with Effective Links (CAEL) protocol reduces overhead in vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs). CAEL improves packet delivery ratio (PDR) performance by selecting reliable nodes for communication.
Area of Science:
- Computer Science
- Electrical Engineering
- Network Engineering
Background:
- Vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) present unique challenges for standard routing protocols due to high vehicle density and rapid network changes.
- Frequent link breakages in VANETs necessitate robust routing consistency.
- High routing overhead in VANETs negatively impacts overall network performance.
Purpose of the Study:
- To propose a novel routing protocol, Compacted Area with Effective Links (CAEL), to decrease routing overhead in VANETs.
- To enhance Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR) performance within VANETs by minimizing overhead.
- To improve the efficiency and reliability of VANET communication.
Main Methods:
- Developed the Compacted Area with Effective Links (CAEL) protocol.
- Focused communication on selected dependable nodes with appropriate existing links.
- Incorporated a reliability factor based on link expiration time to remove extraneous nodes and select trustworthy nodes.
Main Results:
- The CAEL protocol effectively reduces routing overhead in VANETs.
- Simulation results demonstrate a significant enhancement in Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR) performance.
- CAEL outperforms previously published protocols like Dynamic Trilateral Enrollment (DyTE) and Reliable Group of Vehicles (RGoV).
Conclusions:
- CAEL offers an improved approach to routing in dynamic VANET environments.
- The protocol's focus on reliable nodes and link expiration time enhances network efficiency.
- CAEL represents a significant advancement in VANET routing protocol design, offering better performance metrics.
