Abstract
Position-based routing also called geographic routing is considered a more promising routing approach for highly dynamic and mobile networks like Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANETs). In this kind of networks, the high-speed mobility of vehicles causes rapid changes in vehicles density and limited-time communication links. Hence, the need of location service has become extremely important to be able to find the position of a target node in a very short time.
This paper proposes a realistic location service for unicast routing over VANETs in an urban environment. The proposed approach is able to find the path with higher connectivity in urban environment by exploiting information of each vehicle in the network to reach the destination. For this reason, we used a new metric called Link Connectivity (LC) in order to find the path with higher connectivity between the source vehicle and the destination vehicle.
