Integration of traffic and network simulators for vehicular ad-hoc networks

Simulation is the replication of the process of the real-world process. Research tool selection is important for generating the realistic scenario. VanetMobiSim is used to generate the realistic scenario for vehicular mobility model and that traffic file simulated by network simulator NS-2.34. With the help of this step, one can generate the simulation results and run simulations for different scenarios to evaluate the performance of the on-demand routing protocols for VANET in terms of different performance parameters those are average throughput, PDF, NRL, average end-to-end delay and packet loss. In this paper, discuss the Integration of traffic and network simulators i.e. VanetMobiSim and NS-2 for vehicular adhoc network simulation. That Integration is useful for calculate the throughput for VANETs.
