Swarm Based Enhanced Hybrid Routing Protocol in VANETs

Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANETs) play main role in the design and development of the Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) who improves the road safety and transportation productivity. One of the most important challenges of this category of network are the timely, safely and reliable dissemination of messages between vehicular nodes to improve the road safety. Here in this paper PSO based hybrid routing protocol have been proposed. To demonstrate the effectiveness and the performance of this protocol, several metrics such as end to end delay, packet delivery ratio, and normalized overhead load are calculated. The results obtained better performance results with PSO based hybrid routing protocol in contrast to results obtained from traditional routing algorithms such as Ad hoc On-Demand Distance Vector (AODV) and Bio-inspired bee swarm protocol (HyBR).
