Abstract

Nodes (smartCloud vehicles) of minimum connected dominating set form a virtual backbone in a wireless vehicular ad hoc network. A minimum connected dominating set is a minimum set of connected nodes such that every other node in the network is one hop connected with a node in this set. A smartCloud vehicle sends periodic beacon messages (Coordinates) to nearest roadside unit. Every time check smartCloud vehicle or Star whether it belongs to a connected dominating set (CDS). SmartCloud Vehicles in the CDS use a shorter waiting period and retransmit coordinates to same RSU. At time-out expiration, a smartCloud vehicle to address next RSU connectivity and appearance of new neighbors transmits the coordinates. In general, the problem is proved to be NP-hard. In this paper we find a minimum connected dominating set for certain vehicular ad hoc networks. Simulation-based performance evaluation for improving speed, transmission range, processing power, delay using graphs.
