摘要:Vehicular ad hoc network is an emerging new technology and a promising platform for the intelligent transportation system. The most important application of VANET is disseminating emergency messages to warn drivers in case of dangerous events. The core technique relies on the design of a broadcast scheme. In this paper, we propose a hybrid intelligent broadcast algorithm for alert message dissemination in VANETs that is called Hi-CAST. To deliver alert message effectively, the proposed Hi-CAST algorithm uses delay and probabilistic broadcast protocols together with token protocol. The performance of the Hi-CAST is evaluated through simulation and compared with that of other alert message dissemination algorithms.
