Abstract

To improve highway transport security VANET Vehicular Ad Hoc Network is used which is a developing technology incorporating ad hoc network cellular technology and wireless LAN VANETs are different from other type ad hoc networks by their cross network constructions node association features and new application setups The approach of an effective routing protocol for VANETs is vital as VANETs show various distinctive networking research challenges In this paper we discuss the research challenges of routing in VANETs and compare recent routing protocols of VANETs
