For last many years studies have been carried out to inculcate technical advancement in the field of VANET traffic monitoring systems. Rapidly growing population and number of vehicles have increased the probability of network congestion, traffic jams and road accidents. To overcome these hazardous situations, series of technologies have been implemented on vehicle infrastructure in recent years. Vehicles are equipped with intelligent on board equipments and communication is facilitated between vehicle and roadside units to enhance road safety. In this paper multi agent base framework is proposed to increase coordination and synchronization among vehicles in VANETs.

  • This paper proposes a Multi agent based approach for improving cooperation among participating nodes in VANET.
  • Cluster based approach is utilized and master node is elected to make effective communication within vehicles participating in cluster, between two clusters and between cluster and Road side units.
  • Mobile agents are programmed according to required tasks and these agents reside at sensors embedded in various parts of cars, roads and roadside units.
  • To evaluate the performance of vehicles hierarchy value is calculated and motivation based approach is used to motivate those nodes that are having low rank in hierarchy table.
