TOPOLOGY BASED ROUTING PROTOCOLS FOR VANET AND THEIR COMPARISON WITH MANET

Abstract

The development in technologies the mobile networks has been rapidly change, especially Mobile Ad-hoc and Vehicular Ad-Hoc networks. Due to nature of the fields, the mobile sensor network replaced the fix ed sensor network. In these fields, the topology dynam ically changes time by time due to speed and conges ted environment because of this routing is a crucial an d challenging issue. For routing a variety of new r outing protocols have been developed. In mobile Ad-hoc networks and Vehicular Ad-Hoc networks the routing protocols are divided into different categorize. Th ey based on topology, position, and network. We dis cuss the topology based efficient routing protocols and some shed on pros and cons and characteristics and types of these protocols. Moreover, we compare the protoc ols performance and nature of work.
