Scheduling and QoS enhancement in wireless vehicular ad-hoc networks.

D. Tech. Electrical Engineering.Discusses the protocol design in VANETs is very challenging due to their low latency and high data rate requirements in a high mobility environment. Hence, the central metrics of QoS such as throughput, reliability and delays are critical to the design of protocol in VANETs. Therefore, this project focuses on the scheduling and QoS enhancement algorithms. The QoS analytical model and multi-channel MAC protocol were completed; this was significant for the development of the VANETs.The anticipated benefits of this study may be described as: 1. The duty cycle adaptive MAC protocol could improve the QoS of VANET in the situation where the OBU is equipped with only one transceiver. 2. The results obtained from this model is significant for the designing and evaluation of the vehicular network. 3. Due to the characteristics of VANETs, the requirements of high throughput and low latency are critical in VANETs. An efficient multi-channel MAC protocol is a vital requirement in order to offer efficient, fair and stable channel access using the limited channel resources
