Solving traffic congestion — An application of VANET

Vehicular Ad Hoc Network (VANET) is an evolving technology of today's world and is expected to be all pervasive in the near future. The vehicles in VANET possess mobility as well as computational processing power. The vehicles collaboratively form the ad-hoc network and are peers of each other. This paper discusses solving Traffic Congestion as an application of VANET. We have simulated the work of mobility on Network Simulator Tool(NS2), in which we have simulated the traffic roads with the help of SUMO(Simulation of urban mobility) using routing protocol AODV.
