Survey of Efficient Routing in VANET using Ant Colony Optimization Technique

Abstract — Recent advances in hardware, software, and communication technologies are enabling the design and implementation of a whole range of different types of networks that is being deployed in various environments. One such network that has received a lot of interest in the last couple of years is the Vehicular Ad-Hoc Network (VANET).VANET has become an active area of research, standardization, and development because it has tremendous potential to improve vehicle and road safety, traffic efficiency, and conveniences well as comfort to both drivers and passengers. Recent research efforts have placed a strong emphasis on novel VANET design architectures and implementations. A lot of VANET research work has focused on specific areas including routing, broadcasting, Quality of Service (QoS), and security. In this Paper a general overview of Vehicular Ad-Hoc network technology,the routing protocol(AODV) and Ant Colony Optimization. We define proposed algorithm for enhance AODV protocol using Ant Colony Optimization to find efficient path between source and destination
