How to create Vehicular Ad hoc Network (VANET) in NS2

Description

Vehicular Ad hoc Network (VANET) are treated as mobile sensor networks and characterized with special characteristics such as high node mobility and rapid topology changes. VANET nodes can sense a variety of data in its surrounding area to offer several services including traffic monitoring, speed controlling, lost vehicle locating and environmental monitoring as it covers permanently a wide geographical region. Nodes are configured with different communication. Vehicles moves within the specified network boundary. Nodes in VANET can communicate in two ways: vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication and Vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communication. In V2I communication model, vehicles communicate to Road-Side-Unit (RSU) through Road-Side-Routers. Data Transmission is established between nodes using UDP agent and CBR traffic. The sample 19.tcl designs a VANET with sensor node configuration, communication model, mobility model, and energy model components.
