Determining the representative factors affecting warning message dissemination in VANETs
In this paper, we present a statistical analysis based on the 2k factorial methodology
to determine the representative factors affecting traffic safety applications in Vehicular
ad hoc networks (VANETs). Our purpose is to determine what are the key factors affecting
Warning Message Dissemination (WMD) in order to concentrate on such parameters,
thus reducing the amount of required simulation time when evaluating VANETs. Simulation
results show that the key factors affecting warning messages delivery are: (i) the transmission
range, (ii) the radio propagation model used, and (iii) the density of vehicles. Based on this
statistical analysis, we evaluate a compound key factor: neighbor density. This factor combines
the above-mentioned factors into a single entity, reducing the number of factors that
must be taken into account for VANET researchers to evaluate the benefits of their proposals.This work was partially supported by the Ministerio de Educacion y Ciencia, Spain, under Grant TIN2008-06441-C02-01, and by the Fundacion Antonio Gargallo, under Grant 2009/B001.MartĂnez DomĂnguez, FJ.; Toh, CK.; Cano Escribá, JC.; Tavares De Araujo Cesariny Calafate, CM.; Manzoni, P.

Route reservation in ad hoc wireless networks
This paper investigates whether and when route reservation-based (RB) communication can yield better delay performance than non-reservation-based (NRB) communication in ad hoc wireless networks. In addition to posing this fundamental question, the requirements (in terms of route discovery, medium access control (MAC) protocol, and pipelining, etc.) for making RB switching superior to NRB switching are also identified. A novel analytical framework is developed and the network performance under both RB and NRB schemes is quantified. It is shown that if the aforementioned requirements are met, then RB schemes can indeed yield better delay performance than NRB schemes. This advantage, however, comes at the expense of lower throughput and goodput compared to NRB schemes
Behavioral Clustering: A New Approach for Traffic Congestion Evaluation
Nowadays, the analysis of vehicular ad hoc networks for the evaluation of traffic conditions is a hot research field. One of the most significant process in VANETs is the vehicle clusterization. Indeed, in order to optimize the information exchange in such a network, an opportune criterion to aggregate vehicles is needed. The main goal of this work is to propose an innovative strategy to perform such an aggregation, by not considering only the punctual position of vehicles in a given instant, but by taking into account the behavior of vehicles over the time, so that a cluster contains vehicles that behave the same. To this aim, we propose a model that processes information about nodes of the network, and extracts a similarity measure between pair of vehicles to establish if they should belong to the same cluster. © 2020, Springer Nature Switzerland AG
