Abstract

The intelligent Transportation system (ITS), through its derivative system named Vehicle Ad hoc NETwork (VANET) allows vehicles to exchange information relating to safety and comfort of drivers and passengers. Communication equipment fixed in the vehicles makes it possible to send and receive messages. Two categories of VANET communication used: vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle to infrastructure named vehicle-to-road (V2R). In the V2V communication, vehicles act as relay nodes to ensure the exchange of messages between them. In V2R communication, road-side units (RSU) act as relay nodes to transmit information to nearby vehicles and RSUs.

The vehicle knows the roads status by receiving an alert message broadcasted by other vehicles that have detected the event.

The main goal of our work is firstly to inject the alert functionality to one of existing VANETs routing protocols that is the Low-Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy (LEACH). We have used only the basic routing functionalities of LEACH protocol. We have integrated five procedures to the LEACH protocol, which will ensure the following features:

  • Procedure 1: Event point detection.

  • Procedure 2: Search for close neighbors.

  • Procedure 3: Sending of messages to nearby neighbors.

  • Procedure 4: Communications From vehicles to Infrastructure.

  • Procedure 5: Communications From infrastructure to Vehicles.

The second goal is to simulate our protocol functionality on a random waypoint model and to examine the impact of varying density on the number of sent/received packets and average delay. The results of the number of packets sent/received and of the low average delay prove that our proposed algorithm is reliable.
