Abstract
Vehicular Ad-hoc Network (VANET) has recently attracted wide public attention. A key challenge is to design suitable routing protocols for VANET. In order to get high packet delivery ratio and low end-to-end delay, this paper proposes a social-aware routing protocol based on the “store-carry-forward” strategy, called Tie and Duration Based Routing Protocol (TDRP). To select the best relay node, TDRP takes two social metrics into consideration: community and centrality. We adopt a distributed K-Clique community detection to divide vehicles into different communities, and calculate global and local centralities of vehicles by making full use of strong and weak ties, as well as the duration of historical connections. The ONE simulator is used to evaluate the performance of TDRP and Bubble Rap, a typical social-aware routing protocol. Experimental results show that TDRP outperforms Bubble Rap in both city and highway scenarios in terms of packet delivery ratio and end-to-end delay.
