IBCAST: An Intelligent Broadcasting Technique for Efficient Bandwidth Utilization in Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks

Objectives: To propose a new Data Dissemination Technique that intelligently works for finding the Best forwarding node. By using this forwarding Technique, the effective utilization of Bandwidth is achieved. Methods/Analysis: The Link Expiration Time and the Distance Rate is calculated between two vehicles within a Transmission Range. Node having the minimum Link Expiration Time is chosen as the next forwarder. Findings: Number of Redundant Transmission is reduced and the Bandwidth is efficiently utilized in Vehicular Ad hoc NETworks (VANETs). Conclusion/Application: This paper proposes an Intelligent Broadcasting Technique which involves selecting best Forwarder node. Thus it reduces the number of redundant transmission and utilizes the Bandwidth efficiently.
