Ant Colony based Dynamic source routing for VANET

Vehicular ad hoc network (VANET) being an important application of communication and networking. Routing in VANET is difficult because it has a very dynamic behavior i.e. high mobility and different network topologies. Many topologies are developed for VANET, where they exhibit high beginning to end delay; throughput, delay jitter and also have low routing energy and load. In our paper, we use some parameters like movement of the vehicle, vehicular density; velocity and also considering its fading conditions to create a hybrid by implementing the Ant Colony Technique on reactive path finding protocol Dynamic source routing and improve the performance of it. The combined algorithm is expected to deliver a highly efficient system with better beginning to end delay and better packet delivery ratio.
