VANET (Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks) is a network between vehicles and between vehicles and infrastructure. VANET-specific characteristics such as high mobility, movement limitation, and signal interference by obstacles make it difficult to provide stable VANET services. To solve this problem, this paper proposes a vehicle type-based priority clustering method that improves the existing bus-based clustering. The proposed algorithm constructs a cluster by evaluating the priority, link quality, and connectivity based on the vehicle type, expected communication lifetime, and link degree of neighbor nodes. It tries to simplify the process of selecting a cluster head and increase cluster coverage by utilizing a predetermined priority based on the type of vehicle. The proposed algorithm is expected to become the basis for activating various services by contributing to providing stable services in a connected car environment.

Recent wireless communication technologies are envisioned as an innovative alternative to solve transportation problems. On ad hoc networks, as a wireless communication technology, nodes can communicate data without any infrastructure. In particular, vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs), a specific ad hoc network applied to vehicles, enable vehicles equipped with a communication device to form decentralized traffic information systems in which vehicles share traffic information they experienced. This study investigated traffic information dissemination in a VANET-based traffic information system. For this study, an integrated transportation and communications simulation framework was developed, and experiments were conducted with real highway networks and traffic demands. The results showed that it took 3 minutes in the low traffic density situations (10 vehicle/lane.km) and 43 seconds in the high traffic density condition (40 vehicle/lane.km) to deliver traffic information of 5km away with 10% market penetration rate. In uncongested traffic conditions, information seems to be disseminated via equipped vehicles in the opposite direction. In congested traffic conditions, the sufficient availability of equipped vehicles traveling in the same direction reduces the chance to use vehicles in the opposing direction even though it is still possible.

VANET(Vehicular Ad Hoc Network)는 MANET(Mobile Ad Hoc Network)의 일부분으로 무선 애드 혹 네트워크를 구축하는 기술로 기본적인 인프라 없이 차량 간의 통신이 가능하다. VANET의 차량 간 통신으로 도로 상황이나 충돌 사고를 알려주는 응급 메시지를 송수신할 수 있으며 이로 인해 연쇄 충돌 사고를 피할 수 있다. VANET의 응급 메시지는 브로드캐스트 방법을 사용하여 일정 범위 내에 있는 차량들에게 메시지를 전송한다. 그러나 브로드캐스트 메시지를 보낼 경우 메시지 간의 충돌이 일어나 메시지 수신에 시간이 지연된다. 본 논문에서는 브로드캐스트 메시지를 보냈을 경우 메시지 간의 충돌로 인한 메시지 폭증을 막기 위해서 일정 랜덤 대기 시간을 기다린 후 메시지를 브로드캐스트하는 기법을 제안한다. 일정 랜덤 대기 시간을 기다린 후 메시지를 브로드캐스트하게 되면 순수 브로드캐스트 기법보다 충돌이 적어져 메시지 수신 지연 시간이 적어진다.

차량 애드 혹 네트워크(VANET)는 운전자에게 안전하고 편안한 운전을 위한 다양한 서비스를 제공한다. VANET 은 차량의 이동으로 인해 토폴로지 변화가 빠르게 발생하기 때문에 무선 링크 품질과 링크 안정성의 변화가 극심하다는 문제가 있다. 본 논문에서는 VANET 을 위한 새로운 라우팅 프로토콜을 제안한다. 제안하는 프로토콜은 링크 품질과 링크 안정성을 사용하여 최적의 라우팅 경로를 제공하며, 네트워크 QoS 를 제공할 수 있다. 시뮬레이션 결과는 처리량, 패킷 손실률, 그리고 종단 간 지연 측면에서 상당한 성능 개선을 보여준다.

Vehicular ad-hoc networks is temporarily established through inter-vehicle communication without any additional infrastructure aids. It requires a immediate message propagation because it mainly deals with critical traffic information such as traffic accidents. The distance-based broadcast scheme is one of the representative broadcast schemes for vehicular ad-hoc network. In this scheme, a node to disseminate messages is selected based on a distance from a source node. However, a message propagation delay will be increased if the relay nodes are not placed at the border of transmission range of the source node. In particular, when the node density is low, the message propagation delay is getting longer. In this paper, we propose a time-window reservation based relay node selection scheme. A node receiving the alert message from the source node has its time-window and randomly selects its waiting time within the given time-window range. A proportional time period of the given time-window is reserved in order to reduce the message propagation delay. The experimental results show that the proposed scheme has shorter message propagation delay than the distance-based broadcast scheme irrespective of node density in VANET. In particular, when the node density is low, the proposed scheme shows about 26% shorter delay and about 46% better performance in terms of compound metric, which is a function of propagation latency and network traffic.

In VANETs (Vehicular Ad hoc NETwork), conditional anonymity must be provided to protect privacy of vehicles while enabling authorities to identify misbehaving vehicles. To this end, previous systems provide a mechanism to revoke the anonymity of individual messages. In VANET, if we can trace the movement path of vehicles, it can be useful in determining the liability of vehicles in car accidents and crime investigations. Although route tracing can be provided using previous message revocation techniques, they violate privacy of other vehicles. In this paper, we provide a route tracing technique that protects privacy of vehicles that are not targeted. The proposed method can be employed independently of the authentication mechanism used and includes a mechanism to prevent authorities from abusing this new function.

Security over VANET among vehicles and between vehicles and infrastructures has been studied. Through the research, ensuring the message authentication and confidentiality was possible. However, authentication on drivers and vehicles were not actively covered. Once, malicious user using illegal vehicle joins VANET and then generates mistaken information, other drivers' safety will be driven to crisis. For this reason, in the paper, we present a novel authentication method between drivers and vehicles and then only right vehicles and users can participate in VANET. As a result of this, drivers can enjoy their safe and comfortable trip.

Since message forgery or alteration in VANET may cause severe consequences, authentication of critical messages must be provided. However, using normal digital signature may infringe privacy of drivers. Therefore, VANET requires authentication systems that provide conditional anonymity. In this paper, we propose a new authentication system for VANET. In our proposed system, each vehicle can update its pseudonym using re-encryption technique and digitally sign messages using representation problem on the pseudonym. By limiting the usage period, revocation of individual pseudonym is not required. Moreover, we also provide a way to revoke the vehicle itself. Secureness of our system partially rely on the usage of tamper-resistance hardware.

This paper designs and Implements a connectivity analyzer for the hybrid vehicular network based on the real-life movement history data achieved from the Taxi telematics system currently in operation, aiming at providing a useful guideline and information to build a telematics network. The simulator traces the location of each vehicle, sets the vehicle type, either gateway or normal, decides whether it can be connected to a mobile gateway, keeps track of status of the vehicle, and calculates the duration of disconnected state. With this analysis considering the transmission range and gateway ratio, we can decide the cost-effective number of mobile gateways having both cellular and ad-hoc network interfaces, and buffer space requirement based on the measured disconnection time and message generation ratio.
