CDVCN : AN ADVANCED DATA DESSIMINATION STRATEGY EXPLOITING RSU BASED BROADCASTING IN VANET

Vehicular Ad-hoc network is a field of computer network wherein the vehicles act as node and communicate with each other forming a network. In vehicular Ad-hoc Network (VANET) we have two approaches first one is vehicle to vehicle (V2V) communication and the other is vehicle to infrastructure (V2I) communication. The data can be effectively disseminated by broadcasting the messages within the network. This will cause the network to be flooded with messages which results in Broadcast storm problem. This paper proposes a solution to the problem based on Hybrid Vehicular Cloud Network Architecture. The architecture is best understood as a hierarchy of networks wherein the first level network is a network formed by clouds, the second level is formed by RSAPs and the last level is formed by vehicles as the nodes.We conclude by proposing a approach which involves the clustering of RSUs and maintaining the details related to data dessimination
