Searching for a vacant parking space in a congested area or a large parking lot and preventing auto theft are major concerns to our daily lives. In this paper, we propose a new smart parking scheme for large parking lots through vehicular communication. The proposed scheme can provide the drivers with real-time parking navigation service, intelligent anti-theft protection, and friendly parking information dissemination. Performance analysis via extensive simulations demonstrates its efficiency and practicality.
