A reliable and stable V2V routing scheme for warning message dissemination in VANETs using bi-directional clustering

Abstract

Road traffic injuries cause considerable life and economic losses to individuals, their families, and nations as a whole. To avoid road accidents, Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANETs) play a vital role by enhancing transportation systems to make them intelligent. To enhance road safety, emergency message dissemination schemes are indispensable in VANET-based applications. This paper proposes a routing protocol for emergency message dissemination, which uses stable clustering for the bi-directional highway scenario. To assure the long-term sustainability of a cluster, a median technique for selecting a CH is devised. Further, an extended form of the K-medoids algorithm for a new node joining a cluster is employed, which ensures that both node and cluster have the same direction for bi-directional road traffic. Simulation results reveal that the proposed protocol proffers enhanced throughput and lowers the packet loss rates and end-to-end delay compared with state-of-the-art routing schemes. © 2022 ACM.
