Abstract

The technological advancement has led the whole world to be smarter and wiser with the use of intelligent machines. In the transportation industry, new innovations are creeping up day by day to ease the livelihood of man. Smart projects are in tremendous actions throughout the world. Smart cities are coming up based on different projects implantations. One of them is employing of a much safer world with the Intelligent Transportation System. In this paper, a clustering algorithm is designed with the concept of utilizing LTE and DSRC, where a dynamic route discovery is employed in which the location of nodes, base stations and the nodal powers are collected. The introduction of LTE Base station in our proposition actuated a physical importance which tends to the capacity limitations of DSRC in terms of distance connectivity. In view of the location and the battery control, route discovery process is done occasionally. Keeping in mind the end goal to enhance the propagation delay, transmission capacity and cluster life time, cluster protocol is proposed. Simulation results show that our protocol can outperform the existing standard in terms of the end to end packet delivery ratio and latency.
