Abstract:
With the growth of large urban centers, some problems arise and solutions must be sought to contain them. In this context, traffic congestion is one such problem, where road infrastructure does not follow the high growth in the number of vehicles. Traffic Management Systems (TMS) arise to mitigate traffic-related problems, with automatic detection of slow roadways and vehicle rerouting to avoid such routes. Such applications are supported by the Vehicular Ad hoc NETworks (VANETs), where traffic information are disseminated between the vehicles or central server, and thus the better decisions about traffic management can be made. However, the data dissemination in VANETs is a challenging task, due to the short-range communication and high node mobility. Thus, this paper introduces a protocol for Data Dissemination based on Metrics of Complex Networks, called CRONOS. It provides data dissemination of traffic data with low overhead and high coverage. Simulation results show that CRONOS reduced the number of transmissions by 95%, the congestion time by 48.95%, and travel time by 18.11% for a TMS application.
