Abstract
Vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) are a type of ad hoc networks where the node movements are high and there will be instant communication between the vehicles (nodes). In this chapter, the authors propose a real-time simulation of vehicular ad hoc networks using simulation of urban mobility (SUMO) in two cases: 1) user-defined road structure and 2) roads designed through open street maps. In both these cases, cars, buses, trucks, pedestrians, and bicycles will be running in the roads. Most of the vehicles will be following the Euro emission norms. Later these cars will be modelled as nodes in a network and analyse the various network performance metrics like throughput and packet delivery ratio were computed.
