Properties of Topology Based Data Routing Protocols For Vehicular Ad-Hoc Networks

Abstract

From the past years vehicular Ad-Hoc networks (VANET) are being increasingly researched. This special communication network ensures maximum safety to transportation and supports develop of autonomously controlled vehicles. In this network are transported a lot of data packets from most of which are produced by cars in high motion. Therefore, data routing is one from main key of this network because data routing has affect to security, power and last but not least robustness to this network. This work aims to provide a properties of topology based data routing protocols used in vehicular Ad-Hoc networks to present the features related to this field to help researchers and developers to understand the main features of data routing in VANET technology. We mainly focus on OLSR, DSDV, DSR, AODV and DYMO routing protocols. The paper also represents the main key of data routing in VANET network and its division.
