  • Abstract
    We study the performance of different radio access technologies for downloading delay-tolerant content in vehicular networks. Using realistic urban road network and vehicular mobility models, we show that short-distance, high data rate technologies can provide better average performance than large scale cellular networks for delay-tolerant downloads. The downside of such technologies is potentially long interruptions in connectivity, making them feasible only as part of a heterogeneous networking solution.
