Abstract

Urban traffic congestion is a growing concern worldwide. Vehicular Adhoc Networks (VANETs) offer a glimpse into a future with smoother traffic flow and reduced congestion. These networks enable real-time communication between vehicles and infrastructure, creating a dynamic traffic management system. Imagine traffic signals that adjust based on real-time data, congestion being predicted and alleviated before it builds, and emergency services receiving faster response times. This is the potential of VANETs. Ensuring reliable communication and data integrity among constantly moving vehicles is crucial. Researchers are developing protocols and algorithms to address this, focusing on efficient routing, data dissemination, and network stability. The integration of emerging technologies like 5G, edge computing, and artificial intelligence holds promise for further enhancing network performance and robustness. While significant progress has been made, widespread adoption of VANETs faces hurdles. Scalability, security, privacy, and infrastructure development costs are significant concerns. T
