Introduction
• VANET – Vehicular Ad Hoc Network.
• Provides ▫ communications among nearby vehicles, and nearby
fixed equipment.▫ traffic information.▫safety and comfort for passengers.▫ multimedia and internet connectivity facilities for
passengers.▫ A facility for automatic payment for parking lots and
toll collection

Intro…
•Multi-hop data delivery through VANET is complicated by the fact that vehicular networks are highly mobile and frequently disconnected.
•Existing data delivery schemes either pose too much control or no control at all on mobility, and hence not suitable for vehicular networks.
•Most research in VANET relies on simulations for evaluation.
Intro…
•Realistic mobility models▫MOVE ▫SUMO
•Why Realistic mobility models?▫Prohibitive cost of deploying and
implementing such a system.▫Easy to test and evaluate network
protocols.▫Provides generic simulation scenarios.
MOVE•MOVE - MObility model generator for
VEhicular networks.•Provides
▫An environment to quickly pinpoint incorrect details
▫Manage details overhead.•Allows users to rapidly generate realistic
mobility models for VANET Simulation•MOVE is built on top of an open source
micro traffic simulator SUMO
MOVE…
•Provides
▫A facility to conveniently incorporate realistic road maps
▫GUI▫Generates realistic simulation scenarios
with out writing simulation scripts
Architecture of MOVE
MOVE - features
•Implemented in JAVA•Runs on SUMO
•Main components▫Map editor▫Vehicle movement editor
EVALUATION
•Factors that directly affect VANET performance▫Node location▫Density▫Direction▫Unexpected events like accidents▫Road topology
Evaluation…
•CASE STUDIES
▫Existence of traffic lights▫Driver route choice▫Overtaking behavior
The VADD Model•A vehicle knows its location by GPS device , and
The packet delivery information such as source id, source location, packet generate time, destination location, expiration time, etc.
•The most important issue is to select a forwarding path with the smallest packet delivery delay.
•Although geographical forwarding approaches such as GPSR which always chooses the next
hop closer to the destination, it may not be suitable for sparsely connected vehicular networks.

Conclusions• Different from existing carry and forward solutions,
we make use of the predicable vehicle mobility, which is limited by the traffic pattern and road layout.
• MOVE allows users to quickly generate realistic model for vehicular network simulations.
• The details of a mobility model such as existence of traffic lights, driver route choice, and car overtaking behavior can have a significant impact on the simulation results.
• As future work, we will consider using vehicles from nearby road, although this will be more complex.
