Abstract

Vehicular Mobile Communication has emerged as a new area of attraction in the field of Wireless communication. VANETs have emerged as a boon towards saving human live by its safety and non-safety potential applications. This paper tests routing protocols namely Ad hoc On Demand Distance Vector (AODV), Ad hoc On Demand Multipath Distance Vector (AOMDV), Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) and Destination Sequence Distance Vector Routing (DSDV) on a Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing (TIGER) Map of the area of Afton Oaks, Houston, USA. The mobility pattern was created using MOVE (Mobility model generator for Vehicular networks) and SUMO (Simulation of Urban Mobility) capable of intelligent driver model with intersection management (IDM-IM) and intelligent model with changing lane (IDM-LC). Our simulation performances are evaluated using various performance metrics such as average throughput, normalized routing load, end to end delay and packet delivery ratio. The simulation is conducted following the V2V (vehicle to vehicle) communication. The simulation results show that DSR performs comparatively better than AODV, AOMDV and DSDV.
