Abstract

The basic objective of congestion control is to best exploit the available network resources while preventing sustained overloads of network nodes and links. Ensuring congestion control within vehicular ad hoc networks address special challenges, due to the characteristic and specificities of such environment (high dynamic and mobility of nodes, high rate of topology changes, high variability in nodes density and neighborhood, broadcast/geocast communication nature ...). Considering the context of high reliability and real-time required for inter-vehicular communications (including emergency breaking notification for example), we propose a complete validation method of our congestion control algorithms applicability, taking into account reliability, temporal and operational aspects.
