Message Delivery and Relevant Simulation Tools for Vehicular Ad hoc Networks: A survey

Ahmed Ali, Wang Dong, Li RenFa

Abstract— Message Delivery among vehicular nodes is essential to achieve safe transportations. Due to the severe need for broadcasting safety messages over Vehicular Ad hoc Networks, several protocols have been proposed that target dominant problems including broadcast storm, hidden nodes and sparse connectivity. However, researchers still confused about suitable simulation tool selections. In this paper, we review state-of-art research in the field of vehicular networks. We introduce a collective view for work done concerning message delivery, challenges and future trends. Finally, we identify the most common simulation tools; their advantages and categorizations.

Index Terms— Intelligent Transportation Systems, Message Query Telemetry Transfer, Simulation Tools, Vehicular Ad hoc Networks.
