ABSTRACT
We assume that there exists an inter vehicular network using OLSR where accident information can be propagated to all nodes using on-going OLSR control packets. In order to ensure relevancy of the information, we want to be able to control the direction to which the information should or should not be sent. In this paper, we discuss our scheme to utilize the network layer information together with the relative speeds of the VANET nodes to identify the entities that are behind a particular vehicle or VANET node without the need of GPS. With this information, we will be able to restrict our information dissemination to vehicles behind a particular VANET node only. We propose an algorithm which identifies the Multi-Point-Relay (MPR) of OLSR that are geographically behind a particular vehicle. We analyze our back MPR identification algorithm in a detailed way. We also show that using our approach the location of the sending node could be pinpointed if a subset of the nodes in the same VANET know their geographical positions. We use VANET mobility models generated by SUMO into NS-3 for our experiments. Our analysis and experiments show favorable results.

Directed information dissemination in vehicular ad-hoc networks
In this article, we utilize the idea of multipoint relays (MPRs) found in literature (Jacquet et al. in Proceedings of IEEE INMIC, 2001 ), to propagate accident information in a restricted way (e.g., only backwards). We devise an algorithm to identify ...
Effect of Single and Cooperative Black Hole Attack in MANET using OLSR protocol
NISS '19: Proceedings of the 2nd International Conference on Networking, Information Systems & SecurityThe Mobile Ad hoc Network, also known as MANET, is continuously self-configuring without any infrastructure. The communication between nodes in MANET is insured directly without any intervention of fixed equipment or specific administration, due to ...
Improved flooding of broadcast messages using extended multipoint relaying
A common operation in wireless ad hoc networks is the flooding of broadcast messages to establish network topologies and routing tables. The flooding of broadcast messages is, however, a resource consuming process. It might require the retransmission of ...
