Abstract

Vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) are one among the trending research area, and it is utilized in maximum of the intelligent transmission system (ITS) based application. The major challenges which are present during the process of communication between the vehicles are delay due obstacles in ground level and packet loss due to attacks. As so to overcome this drawbacks, hybrid security-based drones-assisted VANETs are introduced in this paper. The proposed approach is based on three transmission models such as (i) vehicle to vehicle (V-V), vehicle to drone (V-D), and drone to drone (D-D). Drones are launched in the VANET network to create the obstacles-free communication. Hybrid security is performed in two stages, at the initial stage—trusted flag-based security is provided to both the V-V and V-D communication models. Secondly, trust evaluation is performed in D-D communication through trust score calculation. To analyze the performance of the hybrid security approach, black hole and Sybil attacks are introduced in the network. The parameters which are considered for the performance analysis are packet delivery ratio, throughput, packet loss, and delay. The values are calculated, and it is compared with the RSAH method in terms of black hole and Sybil attack. Finally, the proposed hybrid security approach achieves (9%) higher packet delivery ratio, (200 Kbps) higher throughput, (350 packets) lower packet loss, and (150 ms) lower delay when compared with the earlier method.
