Outline • Introduction • Related Work • Urban VANETs Analysis • MIBR Design • Routing • Forwarding • Performance Evaluation • Conclusion
Introduction • Vehicular ad hoc networks have recently received considerable attention • The VANET provides both • Roadside-to-Vehicle communication • Inter-Vehicle communication (IVC) • Works like a MANET with its own unique characteristics
Introduction • Key Challenge of Urban VANET • The existence of frequent network disconnection is one of the key challenges for routing protocols for urban VANETs
Introduction • Goal • Analyze the features of urban VANET • Propose a routing protocol MIBR to improve the connectivity of the network by taking advantage of urban characteristics
Related Work • GPSR • GPSR selects the node that is the closest to the destination among the neighboring nodes D GPSRwill choose B, because B is closer to D than A. A B S Greedy Perimeter Stateless Routing for Wireless Networks. MobiCOM 2000
Related Work • RAR • A hybrid routing protocol with vehicles and RSU (Road Side Unit) • Roads are divided into sectors by RSU • The drawback of this protocol is the requirement and distribution of static node or RSU
Urban VANETs Analysis • Vehicle movements are constrained by roads in urban environment • The routing in urban VANET should be a sequence of road segments • The decision to choose which road segment near the junction for forwarding is critical
Urban VANETs Analysis • Traffic lights have great influence on the vehicle movement Vehicles are moving like a cluster
Urban VANETs Analysis • Vehicles have at least two different types in the urban environment • Ordinary cars • Less than bus (80% of ordinary cars in Beijing) • Buses • More than ordinary cars (20% of buses in Beijing) • Larger and more powerful • Can carry better wireless equipment with a larger transmission range than ordinary cars
MIBR Design • Assumptions • Each vehicle knows its location through GPS • Each vehicle has a digital street map including bus line information • Source node can get the information of destination location
MIBR Design • Assumptions • Each bus has two wireless interfaces working on different channels • R1 and R2 • Ordinary car has only one interface • R1 Transmission range between cars and between cars and bus R1 R1 Transmission range between buses R2
MIBR Design • Overview • Routing • Selecting an optimal route which consists of a sequence of road segments with the best estimated transmission quality • Forwarding • Efficiently forwarding packets hop-by-hop through each road segment in the selected route
MIBR Design • Routing • Calculate hop count number of each road segment by the density of buses on the road segment • MIBR prefers road segment with less hop count number • Dijkstra algorithm wouldbe used to select a shortest route with the minimal expected hop count • The next road segment would be chosen when packet is near a junction

MIBR Design • Forwarding • Bus first strategy • Send the packet to the node on the next road segment when it is near the junction • The decision of next hop near the junction is critical • Buses have higher priorities to be the next hop because of the transmission range between buses is larger
MIBR Design • Forwarding • If there are any buses on the next road segment, choose the one which is the closest to the junction after the next junction. Otherwise, choose the ordinary car • If there are no vehicles on the next road segment, and packet is now on a bus or on an ordinary car, choose a bus which is closest to the next junction. Otherwise, choose the ordinary car
MIBR Design • Forwarding • If there are no better suitable forwarding nodes, drop the packet
Performance Evaluation • Simulation Model • Ns-2 simulator • Simulated area is based on Southern Beijing with a 1700m*1000m size in real world • The vehicle movement trace is generated by VanetMobiSim
Performance Evaluation Simulation Parameters Table
Performance Evaluation • The data delivery ratio in different network density
Performance Evaluation • Throughput of networks with 200 nodes
Conclusion • The proposed protocol is a geographical routing using the map topology and the bus line information • The algorithmic complexity of MIBR is low, and the deployment is easy because no static nodes or RSUs are needed in MIBR
