ABSTRACT
In this paper, we introduce a new cross-layer communication protocol for vehicular internet access along highways which is called the Controlled Vehicular Internet Access (CVIA) protocol. The objective of the new protocol is to increase the end-to-end throughput while achieving fairness in bandwidth usage between road segments. CVIA creates single-hop vehicle clusters and mitigates the hidden node problem by dividing the road into segments and controlling the active time of each segment. Simulation results confirm that the proposed CVIA protocol provides higher throughput and better fairness in multi-hop data delivery in vehicular networks when compared with purely IEEE 802.11 based protocols.

Goodput and throughput comparison of single-hop and multi-hop routing for IEEE 802.11 DCF-based wireless networks under hidden terminal existence
We investigate how multi-hop routing affects the goodput and throughput performances of IEEE 802.11 distributed coordination function-based wireless networks compared with direct transmission single hopping, when medium access control dynamics such as ...
SEMP: Self-Elimination MAC Protocol for IEEE 802.11 Wireless Networks
IEEE 802.11-based wireless networks are becoming more popular, and a lot of research is done to enhance the performance of the distributed control function (DCF) found in the IEEE 802.11 standard. Many researchers utilized jamming to further enhance the ...
