•Scenarios: Transmission range:

1. 100 m – 150 m2. 150 m – 200 m3. 200 m – 250 m4. 250 m – 300 m

Max. speed limit:1. 40 km / h2. 80 km / h3. 120 km / h

Page 17: Using traffic flow for cluster formation in VANET

RESULTS

Clusterhead changes vs. Transmission Range at the first intersection. The maximum speed is 40 km/h (25 mph)

Page 19: Using traffic flow for cluster formation in VANET

CONCLUSION

•An algorithm for clusterhead selection based on the traffic flow of vehicles in the cluster is presented.

•Using real scenarios, our algorithm performed better than other algorithms.

•It showed longer clusterhead lifetime.
