Research Area:  Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks

Abstract:

Incompletely predictable vehicular ad hoc networks is a type of networks where vehicles move in a certain range or just in a particular tendency, which is very similar to some circumstances in reality. However, how to route in such type of networks more efficiently according to the node motion characteristics and related historical big data is still an open issue. In this paper, we propose a novel routing protocol named trustworthiness evaluation-based routing protocol (TERP). In our protocol, trustworthiness of each individual is calculated by the cloud depending on the attribute parameters uploaded by the corresponding vehicle. In addition, according to the trustworthiness provided by the cloud, vehicles in the network choose reliable forward nodes and complete the entire route. The analysis shows that our protocol can effectively improve the fairness of the trustworthiness judgement. In the simulation, our protocol has a good performance in terms of the packet delivery ratio, normalized routing overhead and average end-to-end delay.
