MANETS is a kind of ad-hoc network which is continuously changing and not predictable. The nodes in this kind of network are mobile and reorganize themselves randomly. Mobility of these nodes keeps changing from time to time. These nodes are connected using wireless connections to form an ad-hoc network called VANETS. In VANETS (vehicular ad-hoc network) the mobile nodes are vehicles which are equipped with their own resources to carry out the communication (like power, software etc). This paper deals with analyzing the vulnerabilities of VANETS and achieving data integrity and security by providing some authentic means of communication and standards. It describes a protocol which provides prevention against malicious node and how the network reacts in the presence of the malicious node. Using the concept of reliability tables, the paper describes a methodology to dynamically re-create a new route whenever a malicious node is interfaced thus achieving data integrity and security.

Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks represent a specialized application of Mobile Ad Hoc Networks. Here the mobile nodes move in lanes and their mobility can be modeled based on realistic traffic scenarios. To meet the above challenge the goal of defining the mobility model for vehicular ad hoc network along with a realistic traffic pattern is an important research area. Vehicular mobility is characterized by acceleration, deceleration, possibility of different lanes and intelligent driving patterns. Also a modeling of traffic is necessary to evaluate a vehicular ad hoc network in a highway environment. The traffic model has to take into account the driver behavior in order to take decisions of when to overtake, change lanes, accelerate and decelerate. To overcome the limitation of traditional mobility models and mimic traffic models, many traffic model based simulators like CORSIM, PARAMICS and MOVE have been proposed. In this chapter we provide taxonomy of mobility models and analyze their implications. To study the impact of mobility model on routing protocol for vehicular motion of nodes we analyze the performance of mobility models with suitable metrics and study their correlation with routing protocol. We also discuss the fundamentals of traffic engineering and provide an insight into traffic dynamics with the Intelligent Driver Model along with its lane changing behavior.


Vehicular ad-hoc networks VANETs has become one of the great research topics related to automotive industry, as they are the suitable way to describe the real scenarios of the car movement through our daily life. Routing protocols used in the network description of a vehicular ad-hoc network are to balance between the responsiveness of the network to the rapid change of the topology and bandwidth efficiency. Different approaches for routing protocols are introduced to address the routing strategies to be followed in the constructed vehicular ad-hoc network considering its perspective of the routing algorithm to be followed. Each approach is consists of different routing protocols that inherits the main theme of the parent approach. Evaluating the measurements for each approach is very important for the developer of the network through network simulation prior to the expensive direct implementation of the vehicular ad-hoc networks. In this paper, we will discuss three main routing approaches: reactive, proactive and position based routing protocols, discussing the main theme for each approach followed by analytical simulations for three different protocols representing the three approaches. Ad-hoc on demand vector AODV representing the reactive approach, destination-sequenced distance vector DSDV representing the proactive approach and greedy perimeter stateless routing GPSR representing the position based approach.

A wireless ad hoc network is a decentralized type of wireless network. It is a type of temporary computer-to-computer connection. It is a spontaneous network which includes mobile ad-hoc networks (MANET), vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANET) and Flying ad-hoc networks (FANET). A MANET is a network that has many free or autonomous nodes often composed of mobile devices that can operate without strict top-down network administration [1]. A VANET is a sub form of MANET. It is a technology that uses vehicles as nodes in a network to create a mobile network. FANET is an ad-hoc network of flying nodes. They can fly independently or can be operated distantly. This paper discusses the characteristics of these three ad-hoc networks.

This paper focuses on secure data communication between nodes in Ad-Hoc networks by employing IPSec (Internet Protocol Security). In wireless communication, Ad-Hoc network is a new paradigm since, which is used for highly sensitive and emergency operations. Ad-Hoc network is considered a number of mobile nodes that are connected through wireless interfaces and moves arbitrarily. Ensuring security is one of the main issues due to its infrastructure less solutions. This research aims for IPSec protocol that provides security for an Ad-Hoc networking in a various applications. IPSec incorporates security model, i.e. AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) into its framework. In this work, we consider the problem of incorporating security mechanisms to securing data communication for Ad-Hoc networks. We look at AODV routing protocol (Ad-Hoc On-Demand Distance Vector) in detail and it is used for secure routing. Simulation of IPSec protocol is simulated using NS-3 simulator. Results from NS-3 simulator is compared with AH, ESP, and AES in terms of Quality of Service parameters throughput, average processing time and average end-to-end delay.

A Mobile Ad hoc NETwork (MANET) is a self-organizing, infrastructure-less network of mobile nodes connecting by wireless links. In operation, the nodes of MANETs do not have a central control mechanism. It is known for its properties of routable network, where each node acts as a router to forward packets to other specific nodes in the network. The unique properties of MANET have made it useful for large number of applications and led to a number of security challenges. Security in the mobile ad hoc network is a very critical job and requires the consideration of different security issues on all the layers of communication. The countermeasures are the functions that reduce or eliminate security vulnerabilities and attacks. This chapter provides a comprehensive study of all prominent attacks in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks described in the literature. It also provides various proactive and reactive approaches proposed to secure the MANETs. Moreover, it also points to areas of research that need to be investigated in the future.

Vehicular ad-hoc networks are one of the most popular applications of Ad-hoc networks, where networks are formed without any sort of physical connecting medium and can be formed whenever required. It is an area in networks that has enjoyed a considerable amount of attention for quite some time. Due to the highly mobile environment where these networks find their usability, it can be understood that there are a lot of problems with respect to maintaining the communication links between the moving vehicular nodes and the static infrastructures which act as the access points (AP) for these moving vehicular mobile nodes (MN). The coverage area of each AP is limited and as such, the connections need to be re-established time and again between the MNs and the closest accessible AP. Handoff is the process involved here, which deals with selecting the optimal APs as well as the best network available for data transmission. In this article, the authors compare various handoff methods and categorize them based on the different approaches they follow.

Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) is the one of the type of ad hoc network, the MANET is a collection of two or more devices or nodes or terminals with wireless communications and networking capability that communicate with each other without the aid of any centralized  administrator also the wireless nodes that can dynamically form a network to exchange information without using any existing fixed network infrastructure. And it's an autonomous system in which mobile hosts connected by wireless links are free to be dynamically and sometime act as routers at the same time, In MANET, the mobile nodes require to forward packets for each other to enable communication among nodes outside of transmission  range. The nodes in the network are free to move independently in any direction, leave and join the network arbitrarily. Thus a node experiences changes in its link states regularly with other devices. Eventually, the mobility in the ad hoc network, change of link states and other properties of  wireless transmission such as attenuation, multipath propagation, interference etc. This paper discuses   study of Mobile ad-hoc Networks (MANET): classification, characteristics, structure of  MANET  and challenges that are imposed by Mobile ad-hoc Networks.

Vehicular Ad hoc Networks is a promising sub-group of MANET. VANET is deployed on the highways, where the vehicles are mobile nodes. Safety and intelligent transportation are important VANET applications that require appropriate communication among vehicles, in particular routing technology. VANETs generally inherit their common features from MANETs where vehicles operate in a collaborative and dispersed way for promoting contact among vehicles and with network infrastructure like the Road Side Units (RSU) for enhanced traffic experience. In view of the fast growth of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), VANETs has attracted considerable interest in this decade. VANET suffer from a major problem of link failure due to dynamic mobility of vehicles. In this paper we proposed a position based routing algorithm to identify stable path, this will improve the routing by decreasing overhead and interrupting the number of links. Link Expiration Time (LET) is used to provide the stable link, the link with the longest LET is considered as the most stable link. The multicast Ad-hoc On-demand Distance Vector (MAODV) is proposed to avoid the link breakages by using a link with longest LET.  Data loss is reduced by avoiding link breakages and enhance throughput by reducing the communication delay.
