Video streaming in Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs) is a fundamental requirement for a roadside emergency and smart video surveillance services. However, vehicles moving at a high speed usually create unstable wireless links that drop video frames qualities. In a high-density network, network collision between vehicles is another obstacle in improving the scalability of unicast routing protocols. In this paper, the RElay Suitability-based Routing Protocol (RESP) which makes a routing decision based on the link stability measurement was proposed for an uninterrupted video streaming. The RESP estimates the geographic advancement and link stability of a vehicle towards its destination only in the small region. To ensure the reliability while extending the scalability of routing, the relay suitability metric integrates the packet delay, collision dropping, link stability, and the Expected Transmission Count (ETX) in the weighted division algorithm, and selects a high-quality forwarding node for video streaming. The experimental results demonstrated that the proposed RESP outperformed the link Lifetime-aware Beacon-less Routing Protocol (LBRP) and other traditional geographical streaming protocols in providing a high packet delivery ratio and less packet delay with various network densities, and proved the scalability support of RESP for video streaming.

In vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs), safety applications require a reliable and delay-guaranteed broadcasting service to disseminate safety messages. However, channel fading and the high mobility of vehicles make it very challenging for a broadcasting scheme to meet the strict service demands of safety messages. On the other hand, cooperative retransmission is effective in mitigating wireless channel impairments by utilizing the broadcast nature of wireless channels. Therefore, this paper proposes a repetition-based cooperative broadcasting (RBCB) scheme for safety messages in VANETs. The proposed scheme enables the selected helper vehicles to perform the cooperative rebroadcasting along with the source vehicle during the source vehicle’s slot in order to increase the transmission reliability of safety messages and reduce rebroadcasting times. The performance of RBCB scheme is mathematically analyzed in terms of packet delivery probability and average packet delay under the Rayleigh fading channel. Moreover, extensive simulations are conducted to evaluate the performance of RBCB scheme. Both mathematical analysis and simulation results demonstrate that RBCB scheme significantly improves the packet delivery probability and decreases the average packet delay.

Vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) are expected to be used for the dissemination of emergency warning messages on the roads. The emergency warning messages such as post crash warning notification would require an efficient multi hop broadcast scheme to notify all the vehicles within a particular area about the emergency. Such emergency warning applications have low delay and transmission overhead requirements to effectively transmit the emergency notification. In this paper, an adaptive distance based backoff scheme is presented for efficient dissemination of warning messages on the road. The proposed scheme adaptively selects the furthest vehicle as the next forwarder of the emergency message based on channel conditions. The detailed performance figures of the protocol are presented in the paper using simulations in the OPNET network simulator. The proposed protocol introduces lower packet delay and broadcast overhead as compared to standard packet broadcasting protocols for vehicular networks.
