Abstract
In vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs), vehicles communicate either with each other via vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication or with stationary road side infrastructure or road side units (RSUs) via vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communication, to exchange information generated by the mobile applications. Vehicular networks require a reliable and efficient one-hop broadcast service. A makeup strategy for vehicular networks, referred to as cooperative relay broadcasting (CRB), is described. Neighboring nodes rebroadcast the packet from a source node to increase the reliability of the broadcast service. The decision to perform CRB is taken proactively and based on the channel conditions between the relaying nodes and the target one-hop neighbors.
