Abstract

Nowadays, Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) aim to reduce accidents, fuel consumption and roads congestion, for this reason Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANETs) technology as special case of ITS represent the future of the smart vehicles, the use of this one in order to improve road traffic safety will be great challenge. As can be seen, the number of cars worldwide is growing day after day. The deployment of VANETs technology which is composed of several types of communications has interested many researchers. So that to stabilize and handle this number of vehicles, we have focused our search on Quality of Service (QoS) and increased packet delivery ratio between vehicles by implementing Clustering scheme.

This paper describes a new distributed algorithm connectivity-based to form stable clusters. To evaluate our proposal scheme, we have conducted various simulations in OMNeT++ and SUMO simulators. The obtained results are promising in terms of packet delivery ratio and overhead.
