In this paper, we posit that the sensed data in VSNs is generally local in nature and propose a simple yet effective scheme, called To-and-Fro (TAF), for localized data dissemination. Unlike conventional wireless networks and sensing systems, the TAF scheme operates in an opportunistic manner and does not need a network infrastructure. More precisely, the scheme always forwards messages to passing vehicles if they are moving in the opposite direction. Using simulations of both synthetic and realistic network scenarios, we demonstrate that the proposed scheme is simple, practical, and effective for localized data dissemination in vehicular sensing networks. Moreover, the scheme is easy to deploy, as long as each vehicle in the network can access GPS information.","PeriodicalId":228148,"journal":{"name":"2009 IEEE Vehicular Networking Conference (VNC)","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116600898","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This serves to address channel contention associated with omni-directional antenna based network architecture and leads to a simple protocol specification for V2V communication. We propose new data dissemination methods that leverage the unique characteristics of the dynamic switched directional links based architecture.

We outline a comprehensive design of such an emergency vehicle warning system that makes full use of inter-vehicle communication, but also encompasses roadside infrastructure like traffic lights. In our system, other vehicles are not simply warned of an approaching emergency vehicle; they also receive detailed route information. Based on this information, timely and appropriate reaction of other drivers is possible. A prototype of our system has been tested in a traffic environment including emergency vehicles and traffic lights. To identify requirements and evaluate our system, we also conducted a detailed analysis of videos from emergency response trips and an expert survey among members of a local emergency response organization.","PeriodicalId":228148,"journal":{"name":"2009 IEEE Vehicular Networking Conference (VNC)","volume":"75 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128231502","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposed approach exploits distributed information about road connectivity and vehicles distribution to optimize routing decisions. To ensure the packet delivery, D-RCBR defines a new concept of Road Connectivity that provides local topology knowledge and checks if two adjacent intersections delimiting a road segment are actually connected through multi-hop vehicular communication. Then, based on local dissemination strategy, a dynamic routing is performed through the road intersections according to greedy principle. However, since local maximum problems are likely to happen considering only a greedy selection of vertex, D-RCBR defines a recovery procedure inspired from the right hand rule. The simulation results show encouraging performance in comparison to other existing approaches in the literature.","PeriodicalId":228148,"journal":{"name":"2009 IEEE Vehicular Networking Conference (VNC)","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126376359","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In each region, a circular area called emitter and receiver center (ERC) is used for sending and receiving messages. Vehicles within each ERC send and receive messages to and from vehicles inside the other ERCs, defining a multiple geocast routing problem. Each vehicle to cross an ERC sends a message to the multiple destinations using the minimum spanning tree (MST) whose vertices are the ERCs, with a root node in the sender. Messages are routed between the neighboring ERCs using a point-to-point position-based protocol. The messages that arrive at an ERC are disseminated within the region using flooding. Multicast QoS parameters are mainly based on end-to-end delay measures. In VANETs, the communication link delays are random variables because they depend on the underlying vehicle flows. This paper develops an approximate model for end-to-end delay distribution based on phase-type (PH) distributions, and also examines a new QoS multicast parameter adequate to cooperative information gathering and sharing applications. The results are validated by simulation.","PeriodicalId":228148,"journal":{"name":"2009 IEEE Vehicular Networking Conference (VNC)","volume":"140 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115533585","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Compared to many existing solutions, our architecture requires no deployment of base stations along the roads. A special attention is paid to anonymity in order to prevent unauthorized tracking of a vehicle. Moreover, we provide a way for the authority to revoke the anonymity, as it is the case nowadays with the license plates. We discuss the robustness of this system against a compromised authority. We also indicate how the use of a portable storage device, like a USB memory stick, improves the quality of the anonymity by opportunistically binding the TPM to a security server.","PeriodicalId":228148,"journal":{"name":"2009 IEEE Vehicular Networking Conference (VNC)","volume":"121 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117306674","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
