Abstract

Moving vehicles as nodes for creating mobile networks is a technology that shows moving vehicles as nodes. A VANET is a subclass of mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) that consists of groups of moving or stationary vehicles connected by a wireless network. The concept is simple: the combination of wireless communication and data sharing can turn a vehicle into a network like the networks we use in homes and offices. Vanet is an emergent technology with a promising future as well as great challenges, especially in its security. The technical challenges deal with the technical obstacles that should be resolved before the deployment of VANET. Network management, congestion and collision control, environmental impact, and security and safety are some of the challenges. VANET packets contain life-critical information, hence it is necessary to make sure that these packets are not inserted or modified by the attacker. But the main issue in this paper is the safe entering and exiting of vehicles to and from platoons. Platooning is an important mechanism to increase the capacity of roads and the efficiency of driving, which is a group of vehicles moving close to each other to decrease fuel consumption and increase road capacity. Simulation results show that if the platoon leader entertains the exit request on a priority basis as compared to the entry request, it will enhance the performance of the platooning technique in Vehicular Ad-hoc Networking. This paper is organized in such a fashion that the first introduction of the Vehicular Ad hoc network is stated, followed by a literature review. Parameters for vehicular mode are set in the methodology section along with simulation results. In the end, the conclusion and future work are specified. The VENTOS Simulator is used for vehicular models and simulation results.
