Abstract
Several routing protocols have been proposed for ad hoc vehicle networks. They affect directly but differently the quality of the transmitted data. In this paper, we introduce a multipath feature to decrease packet loss in greedy perimeter stateless routing protocol (GPSR). Since using only one path during transmission may cause packet loss due to congestion and saturation in this path. Our enhancement is based on sending the same packet over two different paths to maximize its reception probability. This scheme is evaluated in a highway environment using Omnet++, Veins, and SUMO. The results show that the proposed solution overcomes GPSR in packet delivery ratio.
