Abstract
We propose an open-source integrated simulation platform namely simITS aiming at a realistic evaluation of communication protocols for large scale vehicular networking. Using ns-3 as network simulator and SUMO as road traffic simulator, the main idea is to integrate these two simulation environments in order to make the simulation more realistic. Moreover, we propose to add a new protocol stack designed for vehicular communications and compliant with the draft of ETSI/ITS. Finally, we validate simITS by a basic simulation study.
