A Novel Scheme for High scale IVC and RVC Over Bluetooth

Abstract

Vehicular Ad-Hoc Network (VANET) is a form of Mobile ad-hoc network, to provide communications among nearby vehicles called inter-vehicle communication (IVC) and between vehicles and nearby fixed equipment called roadside-vehicle communication (RVC). In VANET, or Intelligent Vehicular Ad-Hoc Networking, defines an intelligent way of using Vehicular Networking. In VANET integrates on multiple ad-hoc networking technologies such as WiFi, IEEE 802.16, Blue-tooth, IRA etc. for easy, accurate, effective and simple communication between vehicles on dynamic mobility. For configuring the vehicle with a unique address, there is a need for address reconfigurations depending on the mobility patterns; we have presented a centralized addressing scheme for VANET using Blue-tooth. By building up a P2P (Per to Per) overlay network on top of VANETs physical infrastructure, we effectively integrated P2P network’s advantage on sustaining highly dynamic network into the design of VANET routing protocol. By deploying passive VANET routing algorithms with innovative P2P routing mechanisms, we propose two concepts behind the same Single Hopping and Multi Hopping technique. This project investigates the feasibility of having a Vehicular Ad-Hoc Network (VANET) / Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) routing over Bluetooth. Contrary to this approach, most papers of MANET take WiFi as their underlying technology with the aim to expand the already existing internet, and it has fifty meters plus signal range. With the rapid growth in popularity, Bluetooth is being used in increasingly diverse ways to act as a bridge of communication between different hardware. This project develops on this by testing the effectiveness of a Bluetooth routing system with a fully working router implementation on real mobile phones.
