Amarpreet Singh, Manverpreet Kaur . A Novel Clustering Scheme in Vehicular Ad hoc Network. International Journal of Applied Information Systems. 10, 3 ( December 2015), 1-5. DOI=10.5120/ijais2015451472
The demand for vehicular ad hoc networks is increasing day by day, since it offers various applications and marvelous benefits to its users. For example, driving safety, entertainment, emergency applications, and data sharing Vehicular networks are identified by their highly dynamic topology. Due to frequent dynamic nature the nodes in VANETs faces connectivity problems. To make this dynamic topology stable during communication, dynamic clustering is found to be one of the best solutions. To overcome such connectivity issues, a novel clustering scheme is presented to keep connectivity maintenance in vehicular ad hoc network. The proposed algorithm aims to improve the cluster lifetime so that vehicles in a cluster can interact with each other for a long time.
