Title: Congestion management in Vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANET).

Abstract:

Vehicular Ad-Hoc network (VANET) is a type of Mobile Ad-Hoc (MANET) network where the nodes are constrained to move along the road. Vehicles in VANET are equipped with a radio device to communicate with each other and also with the road side units (base stations). Vehicular networks aims to make the driving experience safer, efficient and enjoyable.

In my talk, I will present an approach to address the problem of vehicle traffic congestion. I will discuss a method to avoid traffic congestion using a rate base congestion control algorithm designed for internet.
