Vehicular information broadcasting relay (VIBROR) protocol for inter-vehicle-communications

In order to realize the intelligent transport system (ITS) without any road facilities, inter-vehicle communications (IVC) is considered as preferable. IVC makes it possible to exchange real-time information among vehicles. This paper focuses on the packet-based IVC, and presents the vehicular information broadcasting relay (VIBROR) protocol to realize an effective multi-hop transmission scheme for broadcasting information without any complex negotiation among the vehicles.
