Abstract:
The evolution of the Intelligent Transport System (ITS) has imposed a major impact on road safety by providing
a wide variety of applications to decrease the number of accidents and traffic management. As an emerging component of ITS,
Vehicular Ad-hoc Network (VANET) is considered as a promising technology for increasing road safety. Basically, VANET
provides two types of communications: vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-infrastructure (V2I) communications. While the
vehicles act in a cooperative way to enhance road traffic safety from adopting the V2V communication, also known as Intervehicle
communication (IVC), the biggest challenge is how to address the overhead and stability issues that are caused by
the important number of messages generated by vehicles at critical areas, such as intersections. In this paper, we focus on the
implementation of distributed system based on a passive data dissemination approach and dynamic clustering. This consist
on each vehicle sending periodical measures about the position, velocity to other vehicles belonging to the same signal
range and to the same cluster. Which implied an earlier divi-sion of the network into virtual subgroups to ease management
and data dissemination of messages. Afterward, we simulate the solution using microsimulation taking in consideration the
behavior of each vehicle.
