Performance study of VANET using ant based routing algorithms

The mobile ad hoc network is the network wasmobile nodes move freely in the environment and when these nodes are combined together they form a network. It is basically a type of MANET. Vehicular Ad hoc Networks exhibit highly dynamic behavior. They have high mobility and form random network topologies. In this work, we make use of the vehicle´s movement pattern, vehicle density, vehicle velocity, direction and time condition to carry out the analysis. The aim is to find out the shortest path between the vehicles for the transmission of data packets. The protocol used here is the AODV. In this paper, a bio inspired vehicle to vehicle communication approach is been suggested to identify the shortest path over the network.
