A survey on Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks routing protocols

Vehicular communications have been considered to be an enabler for numerous vehicle safety and information applications. Many automobile manufacturers are indifferent stages of integrating communication devices in their vehicles for the purposes of safety, assisted drivers and entertainments. Because of the dynamic nature of mobile nodes in the network, finding and maintaining routs is very challenging in Vehicular Ad hoc Networks(VANETs). In this paper we have an overview of some routing protocols in VANETs.
