Reliable communication protocol for inter-vehicular network

This paper presents the reliable broadcast protocol for Inter-Vehicular networks. Traffic fatalities are one of the leading causes of death in the world. Vehicular communication technology such as (vehicular ad hoc networks) has emerged as one of promising technology in improving the safety of drivers, passengers, and pedestrians on the road. In vehicular ad hoc networks majority of the messages are broadcasted to announce the state of a vehicle to it neighbors (e.g. sending emergency warning messages, transmitting state information, etc.). However broadcast in vehicular ad hoc networks cause a broadcast storm problem. In this paper, we present new broadcast protocol that address the broadcast problem and improves the reliability of receiving broadcast messages in vehicular ad hoc network. Simulation results shows the efficiency of proposed protocol.
