Abstract:
Stability is a critical factor in Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANETs) because it directly affects the performance and reliability of the network. VANET has a dynamic, high-traffic topology, where vehicles can join and leave the network frequently. This dynamic nature of VANET poses several challenges to network stability, such as frequent disconnections, link failures, and topology changes. A set of algorithms that contribute to maintaining the stability of the VANETs network were studied during this work. This survey introduces the recent state of clustering algorithms in VANETs, discusses various algorithms, and presents a comparison among them considering advantages, disadvantages, and stability.
