Reliable Propagation of Real-Time Traffic Conditions in VANETS to Evade Broadcast Storm

Abstract

Vehicular communication poses a challenge of high mobility of vehicles and the preeminent solution for communication is to broadcast. But it leads to packet redundancy followed by broadcast storm and congestion. This paper proposes a steering strategy for the constant movement conditions utilizing vehicular ad hoc network. The noticeable feature of the proposed paper is that it minimizes Broadcast—Storm—Problem (BSP). The alert message (AM) is transmitted among the road side units (RSU) while the vehicles on street are only in transmitting mode to RSUs. The victimized vehicle creates an alert message that is transmitted to the closest RSU. The message is then sent to all the RSUs on that path utilizing I2I (infrastructure to infrastructure) correspondence. The RSUs process the alert message and signal the vehicles using light emitting diodes (LEDs) planted along the path. Our proposed system decreases Packet—Lost—Ratio (PLR), redundancy, or duplication of messages from numerous foundations. Congestion controlling is enhanced by the fact that the message need not be rebroadcasted by vehicles. Our work is suitable for generic situations.
