    On the feasibility of multi-hop communication in a realistic city scenario
    ( 2017)
    Roscher, Karsten
    Vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) are about to enter the market in the upcoming years. While direct message exchange is limited to a few hundred meters and mostly line-of sight, multi-hop forwarding can significantly extend the communication range. In this paper, the influence of network density and vehicle distribution on multi-hop communication in VANETs is investigated using a model of the city of Luxembourg. Introducing an idealistic reference routing we identify the need for high penetration rates to achieve acceptable reliability independent of the selected routing protocol. A comparison with Greedy forwarding shows its weaknesses to select proper next hop candidates when the number of equipped vehicles increases.

    Nowadays connectivity in the vehicles is becoming the base to enable safety, traffic efficiency, and infotainment applications. These applications require to exchange information with specific geographical locations. After a decade of research and standardization activities, a dedicated technology to support forwarding in Vehicular Ad-hoc Network (VANET) called GeoNetworking has been completed in Europe. This chapter will provide an overview of GeoNetworking features and functionalities describing geographical addressing and geographical forwarding in an easy and understandable way for both technical and non-technical readers.
