Analytical Study of AODV, DSR and DSDV Routing Protocols in VANET simulating City scenario using EstiNet Simulator

VANET is an emerging technology that will help in increasing road safety of commuters and comfort of passengers. In this paper, we compare various topology based routing protocols DSDV, AODV and DSR that are MANET protocols for their behavior in VANET networks, that is a sub-class of MANET based on few parameters. The real city scenario with vehicle traffic has been created using Estinet simulator and analyzed for behavior using different protocols. Finally, we conclude which protocol performs better in city scenario taken in our simulation.
