Abstract

The widespread use of cars in everyday life and the growth of cities caused by urbanization of the population have greatly contributed to congestion in road traffic and also increased the likelihood of accidents. These facts prompted the development of applications that help the driver make decisions and ensure the safety of all passengers. In addition, such programs can help the driver avoid traffic congestion when choosing a route, improve vehicle efficiency and help reduce environmental pollution. As far as the entertainment area is concerned, establishing a vehicle-to-vehicle communication system can bring many benefits to passengers, allowing them to share music, video, or even interact between people in different vehicles and interact with information points that exist on the roads. The peculiarities of this class of networks necessitate the development and implementation of specialized routing protocols. The main purpose of this article is to develop a methodology for evaluating and comparing VANET routing protocols. The basis of the methodology for evaluating and comparing routing protocols for VANET networks is the method of comprehensive assessment of data quality. The simulation model will allow to obtain the values of the data quality criteria, which will be used in the future to assess the performance of the studied network. Special methods are usually used to evaluate the performance of routing protocols for road transport networks. For the network that uses the studied routing protocol, a scenario of its operation is developed. This scenario includes elements of the network topology, such as the location of traffic sources, as well as the choice of nodes - the final receivers of traffic.

Keywords: VANET; routing protocols; quality assessment criteria; іntelligent transport systems.
