摘要：The efficiency by which a node of a vehicular ad hoc network (VANET) can route messages to destinations heavily depends on the VANET's ability to keep track of the locations of its nodes (vehicles). Current location management schemes lack scalability and, hence, are proven unable to work in large scale networks. Therefore, location management in VANETs remains a major challenge. In this project a new concept of region-based location-service-management protocol (RLSMP) that uses mobility patterns as means to synthesize node movement is deployed in large VANET applications. The protocol attempts to relax the scalability issue suffered by other protocols (SLURP, XYLS, HLS) by employing message aggregation in location updating and in querying. Furthermore, due to the protocol's intrinsic locality awareness, it achieves minimum control overhead. The process is implemented by using hexagonal shape topology and increasing the mobility of the network, the mobility of the nodes are noted. The performance of the protocol is compared with that of other prominent location management protocols through graphs.
