Abstract

VANET (Vehicular Ad hoc Network) is advancement in ad-hoc networks to transmit messages between vehicles with the use of RSU units. VANET is both infrastructure based and infrastructure less networks. To transmit messages in infrastructure based network is easy, messages are transmitted through some base stations but transmission of messages in infrastructure based network is a challenging task. In this kind of scenarios vehicles can only transmit its messages to the other vehicles when they are in the transmission range. When the vehicles are in the high quantity then it is necessary to divide them into clusters. To transmit messages in clusters, two most popular schemes are used one is single ferry routing scheme and other one is multiple ferry routing scheme. In this paper we proposed an enhanced cluster based mechanism with the use of multiple ferry vehicles. Ferry vehicles are the vehicles which are used to transmit messages or carry message from one cluster to another cluster. Simulation results shows that proposed mechanism has higher throughput, less message delay and less overhead ratio as compared to the existing techniques.
