Vehicular ad hoc network (VANET) is a novice technique which has drawn the attention of several industries and academics. Security parameters in VANET are now receiving popularity in the research community. A defensive mechanism provides a solution to control the attacks across the VANET security. However, a single defence mechanism is unable to provide solution to the attack models as more sophisticated method is required for VANETs. This paper proposed a method termed heuristic approach for ant colony optimization (HAAC) for improved security in addition to better transportation, reliability and management. The heuristic based ant colony optimization is used to reduce the problem in finding known and unknown opponents in providing security to VANET. The characteristic of real ant colonies is used in VANET security in order to solve attack problems with shortest path. The Reinforcing VANET security using vehicle mode analysis is evaluated in an efficient manner using NS2 simulator. The excellent outcomes are obtained by an HAAC approach combined with a dynamic heuristic.

Abstract


Vehicular ad hoc network (VANET) is a novice technique which has drawn the attention of several industries and academics. Security parameters in VANET are now receiving popularity in the research community. A defensive mechanism provides a solution to control the attacks across the VANET security. However, a single defence mechanism is unable to provide solution to the attack models as more sophisticated method is required for VANETs. This paper proposed a method termed heuristic approach for ant colony optimization (HAAC) for improved security in addition to better transportation, reliability and management. The heuristic based ant colony optimization is used to reduce the problem in finding known and unknown opponents in providing security to VANET. The characteristic of real ant colonies is used in VANET security in order to solve attack problems with shortest path. The Reinforcing VANET security using vehicle mode analysis is evaluated in an efficient manner using NS2 simulator. The excellent outcomes are obtained by an HAAC approach combined with a dynamic heuristic.
