VANET is a special class of Mobile Ad hoc Network. VANET is mainly used to model communication in a Vehicular environment where the vehicles are considered as VANET nodes with wireless links. In this paper an attempt has been made to create a new cluster model for efficient communication among the VANET nodes. For this purpose, taking the Simple Highway Vehicular model concept into consideration, a clustering model has been created. The proposed mobility model is called simple highway mobility model(SHWM). This paper focuses on the development of a clustering framework for communication among the VANET nodes. The various timings required for the formation of Clusters, Cluster head election time and Cluster head switching time are computed and presented. The proposed model can be used to characterize the Cluster Based Simple Highway Mobility Model (CBSHWM).

Abstract


VANET is a special class of Mobile Ad hoc Network. VANET is mainly used to model communication in a Vehicular environment where the vehicles are considered as VANET nodes with wireless links. In this paper an attempt has been made to create a new cluster model for efficient communication among the VANET nodes. For this purpose, taking the Simple Highway Vehicular model concept into consideration, a clustering model has been created. The proposed mobility model is called simple highway mobility model(SHWM). This paper focuses on the development of a clustering framework for communication among the VANET nodes. The various timings required for the formation of Clusters, Cluster head election time and Cluster head switching time are computed and presented. The proposed model can be used to characterize the Cluster Based Simple Highway Mobility Model (CBSHWM).
