Abstract

Road safety applications provided by the vehicular ad hoc networks demand less delay, high throughput, and reliable communication under highly dense traffic conditions. It becomes very challenging to design a network that suits the high mobility of vehicles and frequently changing network topology. In order to address the challenges in the network, this paper presents a new approach for dynamically adapting the contention window size (DYCW) based on vehicle density conditions. Along with that, cooperative relay vehicles are introduced for relaying the safety messages that failed to reach the destination. An analytical study of the proposed model is carried out, and the simulation results showed that using the DYCW mechanism enhances the system functioning by leading to higher throughput with stability in performance and decreases both the delay and the packet drop ratio (PDR) of the system.
