Abstract

In the vehicular ad hoc networks several types of data are disseminated and transmission protocol changes with change in the type of data. Some information is useful for only those vehicles which are in certain specific range or location. Dissemination of traffic update message to all the vehicles is wastage of channel bandwidth. In our proposed method, vehicles which are already trapped in the traffic jam are transmitting traffic update message that is disseminated to the vehicles which might be trapped to the traffic jam. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed protocol reduces congestion in the dense traffic region and efficiently utilizes the bandwidth in stressful road scenarios.
