Effective Data Forwarding to a Moving Target in Vehicular Networks

Abstract

Vehicular Ad Hoc Network (VANET) has received considerable attention on information sharing and data delivery services. In vehicular networks, multi-hop packet forwarding from information source to moving vehicles presents a challenging task due to many factors, including high mobility, frequent losses, and real-time requirement for applications. In this paper, we propose a moving target oriented reliable and timely data forwarding scheme in vehicular networks.
