Nowadays, urban traffic congestion has become a global phenomenon, resulting in a lot of negative effects both on economy and ecology. Thus, the detection of road congestion in cities is a highly urgent problem to be solved by scientists throughout the world. One new promising approach is the utilization of vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANETs). In this paper, we focus on the data transmission in the detection applications and propose a novel broadcast method, restricted multi-hop broadcast (RMB), to improve the congestion detecting ability of road side unit (RSU). Furthermore, two strategies are presented as the optimization of RMB. In order to validate RMB, we make experiments in a realistic traffic scenario. Simulations show that RMB works efficiently and expands the detection range of RSU significantly.
