PROPOSED TITLE: Design and performance analysis of Vehicular ad-hoc NETwork

(VANET) considering different scenarios of Dhaka City.
PROJECT OUTLINE: (200 WORDS MAX.): Proposal definitely should address these points:
(1). Why do you want to work on this topic and
(2). How are you going to accomplish the thesis/project-goal?
(3). What is the timeline required to accomplish the thesis/project-goal? (Gantt Chart)
Vehicular Ad-hoc NETwork (VANET) is becoming a promising technology in which moving
vehicles are able to exchange information between them without the need of infrastructure [1].
The original idea of VANET is for the safety purposes such as warning the drivers when there
is an accident happened in the front of the road or there is a traffic jam or not. Nowadays,
VANET is extended to offer more services like downloading emails transfer, assessing Internet
and Global Positioning System (GPS) services. To make sure that information transmitted
correctly, an efficient routing protocol is crucial and indispensable for coping with the rapid
topology changes. In this thesis, we will try to develop an OPNET model to evaluate the
VANET performance of various Ad-hoc routing protocols with different scenarios (For
Bangladesh).
VANETs are proposed to offer wide range of applications like safety warning, traffic
information broadcasting and Internet surfing. However, all these applications can only be
realized if the packet routing protocol can meet the minimum QoS requirements. In most of
previous work such as [2], they were focusing on Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) where the
movements of nodes are random and totally different from the realistic predefined vehicles'
trajectories. In order to better evaluate the routing protocols and get more realistic simulation
results, we will try to develop VANET model and Road Side Unit (RSU) model in OPNET
Modeler 14.5.
