Improved Performance by Using k-means Clustering in Vehicular Ad Hoc Network

Abstract

Abstract

VANETs are formed by applying the principles of MANETs, in which all node, i.e., vehicles can pursue traffic law with high speed. VANETs support two types of communication: vehicle - to- vehicle (V2V) and vehicle to-infrastructure (V2I). Vehicles communicate to RSU for the exchange of keys for the security purpose and RSU communicate to Authentication Server (AS) for the formation of secret keys. But in existing work they perform nonsymmetric cryptography in which XOR operation is performed at authentication server which increases the size of key. In this paper we proposed a technique in which we form the cluster of vehicles then perform login for sending the data. Our results are shown in NS2 simulation which proves that the performance of network improves in terms of Throughput, Routing Overhead and Packet Delivery Ratio.
