The Design of Dynamic Data Dissemination and Collection for Vehicular Communication Networks

The three-year proposal, “the design of vehicular communications systems for dynamic data dissemination and collection,” is a multiple-year cooperative project which is developed for dynamic vehicular communication systems in distributed fashions, while vehicles move in the metropolis. This project deals with the real-time traffic and updating parking information communications and offers a distributed dissemination environment to periodically receive real-time messages. We will focus on the investigation of a distributed way on delivering real-time traffic and parking space information. We believe that the performance of information delivering in distributed manner will be more efficient than centralized manner if we can develop an intelligent vehicular ad hoc network (VANET) communication system. In the first year, we will focus on solving the key technical problems of the dynamic data dissemination and collection schemes in VANET. The most challenging issue is using the distributed way to disseminate the information and collect wanted data by vehicles. We expect that the investigated protocol will get higher performance enhancement that the traditional centralized broadcast way. In the second year, we will focus on the specific affair announcement and updating problems, e.g., the number of available parking spaces and up-to-date traffic information, by using the multicast scheme. Finally, in the third year, we will improve the proposed scheme by introducing the intelligent transmission algorithms and schemes.
