FENG Lin, LIU Guo-tian, ZHANG Jian-jun, et al. A communication method for clustering vehicular Ad Hoc networks[J]. 2013, 32(12): 23-25. DOI: 10.13873/j.1000-97872013.12.018.
Aiming at problem of transmission bottlenecks of the Gateway node in the clustered vehicular Ad Hoc networks where there is a large amount of datas. Combine with DMAC clustering algorithm
propose a new method that set up virtual communication path between two hops away cluster-head by using directional antenna. The simulation results show that compared with the omni-directional communication mode
the method can effectively reduce 110 ms of the end-to-end delay between two clusters
and increase the network throughput nearly 3 Mbps.
