Design and Simulation of Efficient Dynamic Data Forwarding Protocol towards Route Optimization in VANET Infrastructure

Abstract

The VANET, which consists of the Internet and the Internet of Things (IoT), has recently been implemented with the Internet of Vehicles (IoV). Through the use of a car network and an AdHoc approach, it provides the user with environmental traffic information. Combining the networks of cars, known as VANETs, allows for infrastructure-free data transfer, particularly for entertainment and emergency vehicle notification. The data or packet delivery ratio, data communication latency, data transmission faults, and details of vehicle collisions are among the traffic information provided by the internet of vehicles. In this work, an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is used to solve the problem of route optimisation in VANET topologies for effective data transfer. Many routing protocols are used to improve the effectiveness of the packet or data routing process. In order to alleviate the routing issue and generate an effective way for efficient data transfer with strong network stability, the Optimised Link State Routing (OLSR) Protocol is used in this study with energy-saving techniques on many parameters. To evaluate the efficacy of the suggested routing technique on various network sizes, extensive simulations are carried out on the NS2 simulator with various network parameters. When compared to traditional routing protocols along UAV-based protocols for data transmission, the performance results of the suggested data routing solution employing OLSR protocol achieve higher efficient pathways. Ultimately, the suggested routing system produces superior outcomes in terms of message throughput, message delivery ratio, latency and network overhead on comparing with existing routing protocols.
