摘要：Vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANETs) which is a special form of Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) has promising application prospects in the future. Due to the rapid changing of topology structure, how to find a route which can guarantee Quality of Service (QoS) is an important issue in VANETs. This paper presents an improved Greedy Perimeter Stateless Routing (GPSR) protocol based on our proposed next-hop node selection mechanism. Firstly, we define the link reliability in two cases which take the movement direction angle between two vehicles into consideration. Then we propose a next-hop node selection mechanism based on a weighted function which consists of link reliability between the sender node and next-hop candidate node, distance between next-hop candidate node and the destination, movement direction angle of next-hop candidate node. At last, an improved GPSR protocol is proposed based on the next-hop node selection mechanism. Simulation results are presented to evaluate the performance of the improved GPSR protocol, which shows that the performance including packet delivery ratio and average end-to-end delay of the proposed protocol is better in some situations.
