Vehicular Ad Hoc Network as a Supplementary Cellular Tower by Using Open BTS
VANET (Vehicular Ad Hoc Network) used in vehicular communication which is trending are of current research and it is the future of vehicles industry. Many companies are investing lots of money to make their vehicles smart and effective so that need of driver can be reduced or omitted as well as journey should be safe and secure. Recently, Google tested its driverless car and the test was successful. Vehicular communication is becoming intelligent and efficient day by day. In this paper we are proposing a realistic approach to use VANET as an additional cellular tower by using Open BTS to reduce RSU (Road Side Units) and cellular towers. This will result reducing cost of installing more cell tower and increase communication speed along with reduction in harmful gasses which spreads in atmosphere due to use of diesel Generators which provide electricity to Cell Towers. VANET's OBU (On Board Unit) will work as Medium Range Cellular Tower (MRCT) to facilitate mobile phone and other subscribers in range of 1 to 2 Kilometer.
