Dynamic clustering based risk aware congestion control technique for vehicular network

Abstract

Abstract In order to improve road safety and offer extra services to cars and their users, vehicular ad hoc networks, or VANETs, are essential parts of intelligent transportation systems (ITS). The primary aim of this research is to suggest and assess a new approach for mitigating network congestion in VANET technology through the implementation of dynamic grouping of vehicles for safety (DGVS). To do this, virtual regions are created around cars using the DBSCAN and K Mean method. This allows vehicles to communicate directly with others within the same DGVS, eliminating the need to broadcast messages across the entire network.The ultimate goal is to drastically decrease traffic while preserving vital data transfer for VANET traffic control and safety. The suggested technique determines the optimal transmission rate in accordance with the existing channel circumstances, yielding a balanced performance concerning both packet delivery and channel congestion. With this novel method, cars may only talk to other vehicles that are in the same DGVS, thus there’s no need to broadcast messages to the whole network. With the use of this technique, the efficacy of DGVS in reducing VANET congestion and enhancing network performance will be thoroughly assessed. The study’s conclusions demonstrate how well the suggested dynamic grouping of vehicles for safety (DGVS) technique works to reduce VANET congestion. It was shown through simulation-based studies that, in comparison to current approaches, DGVS dramatically decrease network congestion, resulting in notable gains in network performance and decreased communication delay. Additionally, the study found a number of possible uses for DGVS in the transportation industry, such as emergency response, traffic management, and accident prevention.
