Implementations Of The DTM, DADCQ And SLAB VANET Broadcast Protocols For The Ns-3 Simulator
- Date Issued:
- 2016
- Summary:
- This work presents the implementations of three adaptive broadcast protocols for vehicular ad hoc networks (VANET) using the Network Simulator 3 (Ns-3). Performing real life tests for VANET protocols is very costly and risky, so simulation becomes a viable alternative technique. Ns-3 is one of the most advanced open source network simulators. Yet Ns-3 lacks implementations of broadcast protocols for VANET. We first implement the Distance to Mean (DTM) protocol, which uses the distance to mean to determine if a node should rebroadcast or not. We then implement the Distribution-Adaptive Distance with Channel Quality (DADCQ) protocol, which uses node distribution, channel quality and distance to determine if a node should favor rebroadcasting. The third protocol, Statistical Location-Assisted Broadcast protocol (SLAB), is an improvement of DADCQ which automates the threshold function design using machine learning. Our NS-3 implementations of the three protocols have been validated against their JiST/SWANS implementations.
