HIGHWAY ACCIDENT PREVENTION USING VANETS

Computer Science and Engineering

Day to day population has been increased in India, leading to massive real-time road traffic. Security has turned into a fundamental issue for governments and vehicle producers recently. The aggregate number of vehicles has encountered an astounding development leading to highway accidents. The improvement of the new vehicular advancements has moved organizations and other foundations for enhancing vehicular security on the problems with highway accidents. The focus of the project is to achieve better performance by implementing vehicle 2 vehicle communication scenario with weighted cluster algorithm(WCA).WCA is widely used for analysis in VANET environment. WCA shows that vehicular movement is based on the cluster formation algorithm steps. The intention of this project is to analyze how much distance and time has been covered to form the cluster. In WCA, each vehicle on the road will be considered either a cluster head or a cluster member of different clusters becoming gateway nodes. Using this concept, this project will improve the performance with the help of NS2. NS2 is an open source simulation tool that runs on Linux. It is a discrete event simulator targeted at networking research and provides substantial support for simulation of routing, and implementation of various protocols such as UDP and TCP over wired and wireless networks.
