Abstract
Connection stability in vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication is important for applications handling urgent message, such as cooperative driving. Many kinds of mobile ad-hoc network protocols have been proposed; however, there should be possibility to improve data dissemination performance specially for V2V communication by using characteristics of vehicle location information and camera sensor information. We propose a method of ad-hoc network construction with the characteristics to improve connection stability and evaluate the performance with a network simulator. A camera sensor detects each vehicle's location. Vehicles driving in each lane form a group and a network address is assigned to each lane.
