| The major ob jective of the FleetNet pro ject
[5, 2] was to develop a platform for inter-vehicle communication
based on the principles of ad-hoc communication. In its process,
unicast datagram routing served as one of the research focuses to
identify and conquer the challenges of data forwarding in
vehicular scenarios. Among others, car movement on highways was a
scenario we paid attention to. To serve as a basis for network
simulation, DaimlerChrysler provided realistic highway movement
traces resulting from their own vehicular movement research [3].
This document is the complement to the Technical Report [4] where
we describe the work done on the DaimlerChrysler traces in order
to: a) model bidirectional scenarios, b) obtain Tcl scenarios
compatible with the ns-2 simulator, and c) understand the ve-
hicle distribution and movement of the resulting scenarios from a
connectivity point of view. This report consists of the whole
statistical evaluation of the basic set of scenar- ios listed in
[4] and available to the VANET (Vehicular Ad-Hoc Network)
community at [1]. We highly recommend the reading of [4], which
describes the structure of this document and all parameters being
analyzed. |
