Abstract :
In this paper, we focus on the problem of ad dissemination in the cluster based vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs). Our goal is to stimulate vehicles to disseminate the ad packets cooperatively in a stable cluster based VANET, meanwhile a stable clustering algorithm for N-hop clustering is proposed. To stimulate the vehicles to cooperate, the VANETs are modeled as a two level (a cluster level and an inner level) graph game.
