PHRHLS: A movement-prediction-based joint routing and Hierarchical Location Service for VANETs

Location-based services provide (and maintain) location information used by geographic routing protocols. Routing and location service are widely related, but handled separately in usual studies about Vehicular Ad hoc Network (VANET). In this paper, we propose a hybrid approach, denoted mobility-Prediction-based Hybrid Routing and Hierarchical Location Service (PHRHLS), coupling a VANET routing protocol, the Greedy Perimeter Stateless Routing (GPSR), and the Hierarchical Location Service (HLS) extended with a mobility prediction algorithm. We show that our approach, PHRHLS, reduces the localization overhead and enhances the routing performances. Indeed, our extensive simulations show promising results in terms of end-to-end latency, packet delivery ratio and control message overhead.
