An Overview of Routing Protocols Performance for VANETs with Real World Map Data: A Survey

  Narendra Baghel,  Chandrakant Mahobia

VANETs stand for Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks where a very short lifetime network is formed among the vehicles. All the vehicles itself are acting as the nodes within the network. Since such network is formed by vehicles so node speed is limited by the factors like road structure, traffic conditions, traffic rules and infrastructure. These factors arise many research challenges in VANETs, and also consist critical design of an efficient routing protocol for VANETs. In such a network, there are two kinds of communication are involved i.e. between vehicle to vehicle and vehicle to roadside unit (RSUs) communication. Therefore, the performances of such communication depend on the various protocols like AODV, DSR, DSDV etc. Since the performance of protocol should be considered for realistic traffic and road side conditions. In this paper we present comparative analysis of VANETs routing protocol based on different parameters like packet delivery fraction, E2E delay and routing overhead. This analysis is to find the suitability and functionality of these routing protocols for vehicular area networks under real world map data or under realistic road side conditions.
