Vehicular Ad hoc networks (VANETs) are considered as a promising approach for facilitating road safety, traffic management and infotainment dissemination for drivers and passengers. The development of wireless communication in VANET implies to take into account the need of security. Many attacks rely on having the attackers generate multiple identities to simulate multiple nodes, this is called Sybil attack. In this paper, we discuss various approaches proposed by different researchers to defend against Sybil attack.

Vehicular Ad-Hoc Networks (VANETs), a new mobile ad-hoc network technology (MANET), are currently receiving increased attention from manufacturers and researchers. They consist of several mobile vehicles (intelligent vehicles) that can communicate with each other (inter-vehicle communication) or with fixed road equipment (vehicle-infrastructure communication) adopting new wireless communication technologies. The objective of these networks is to improve road safety by warning motorists of any event on the road (accidents, hazards, possible deviations, etc.), and make the time spent on the road more pleasant and less boring (applications deployed to ensure the comfort of the passengers). Practically, VANETs are designed to support the development of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). The latter are seen as one of the technical solutions to transport challenges. This chapter, given the importance of road safety in the majority of developed countries, presents a comprehensive study on the VANET networks, highlighting their main features.

Vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) form when vehicles are equipped with devices capable of short-range wireless communication. Realistic vehicle trace modeling for VANETs simulations is a challenging task, which requires the reliable characterization of vehicular mobility. In this study, three different vehicle scenarios are proposed to analyze the difference between vehicle traces in multi-scenarios: city road, expressway and highway. Common trace modeling tools and characters of the scenarios are explored. Furthermore, three experimental scenarios are established using VanetMobiSim to produce vehicle traces. The experimental results show that the trend of the average speed versus the number of vehicles is different, and the vehicular density distribution demonstrates the realism of vehicle trace under multi-scenarios.

Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs) are gaining much attention from both industry and academia communities as an emerging technology. VANET is composed of self-regulating nodes where the vibrant node mobility changes the network topology frequently. The important aim of VANET is to upgrade road safety conditions to minimize extent of road mishaps. The nodes are very mobile in vehicular ad hoc network so routing becomes complex job. As the VANET nodes move very fast the topology changes accordingly. So node mobility prediction in VANET is a very important issue. Further, prediction of mobility helps to estimate the stable path between the nodes which leads to better routing. Estimating secure paths among the routing of nodes perform in a better way, thereby reducing the overhead and minimizing interruptions in connections. This paper explores VANET's basic architecture and discusses a number of current mobility prediction techniques, and concludes with performance analysis of existing routing protocols and proposed mobility prediction methods.

Due to advances in wireless communication technologies, wireless transmissions gradually replace traditional wired data transmissions. In recent years, vehicles on the move can also enjoy the convenience of wireless communication technologies by assisting each other in message exchange and form an interconnecting network, namely Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs). In a VANET, each vehicle is capable of communicating with nearby vehicles and accessing information provided by the network. There are two basic communication models in VANETs, V2V and V2I. Vehicles equipped with wireless transceiver can communicate with other vehicles (V2V) or roadside units (RSUs) (V2I). RSUs acting as gateways are entry points to the Internet for vehicles. Naturally, vehicles tend to choose nearby RSUs as serving gateways. However, due to uneven density distribution and high mobility nature of vehicles, load imbalance of RSUs can happen. In this paper, we study the RSU load-balancing problem and propose two solutions. In the first solution, the whole network is divided into sub-regions based on RSUs’ locations. A RSU provides Internet access for vehicles in its sub-region and the boundaries between sub-regions change dynamically to adopt to load migration. In the second solution, vehicles choose their serving RSUs distributedly by taking their future trajectories and RSUs’ loading information into considerations. From simulation results, the proposed methods can improve packet delivery ratio, packet delay, and load balance among RSUs.

Over the past few years, there has been significant research interest in field of vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs). Wireless communication over VANETs supports vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V), vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communication. Such innovation in wireless communication has improved our daily lives through road safety, comfort driving, traffic efficiency. As special version of MANETs, VANETs bring several new challenges including routing and security challenges in data communication due to characteristics of high mobility, dynamic topology. Therefore, academia and the auto mobile industry are taking interest in several ongoing research projects to establish VANETs. The work presented here focuses on communication in VANETs with their routing and security challenges along with major application of VANETs in several areas.


Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANET) are useful in implementing a smart transportation system by enabling ad hoc vehicle to vehicle communication. Sybil attack is considered to be one of the most dangerous threats to VANET. Sybil aggressor can produce different phony personalities with false messages to extremely hinder the ordinary elements of wellbeing related applications. In this paper, we are presenting an implementation of a method to detect Sybil attack using received signal strength indicator.
