Abstract:
This Paper discusses the capability of the current routing protocols for Mobile ad hoc networks for Vehicular ad hoc networks. VANET is derived from MANET and it is a network consisting of vehicles which can communicate wirelessly. In high traffic conditions the message should be delivered correctly between the vehicles and the communication using Road Side Units. VANETs are characterized by a dynamic topology with patterned mobility consisting on mobile nodes with sufficient resources and varied time channel behavior. The network traffic requirements differ for VANET. There are many routing protocols for mobile ad hoc networks which can be used for vehicular ad hoc networks. In this paper, we are introducing Zone Routing Protocol which can improve the parameters of VANET i.e. less communication delay and delivering the messages on time compared to AODV and DSR protocols while the vehicles are moving at high speeds. We have used a simulation to demonstrate those improvements.
