Abstract

Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANET) belong to a subclass of Mobile ad hoc networks . VANET provides a distinguished approach for Intelligent Transport System (ITS). VANET has become an active area of research and development since it has tremendous potential to improve vehicle and road safety, traffic efficiency, and convenience as well as comfort to both drivers and passengers. In this paper we discuss the characteristics and architecture of VANET. Further we provide an overview of Greedy Perimeter Stateless Routing Protocol. Efficient routing protocols are essential for smart ITS.
