Abstract The future Intelligent Transport System "ITS" is one of the major challenges of the smart city. It requires fast and efficient communication between vehicles (vehicle-to-vehicle “V2V”), to ensure information exchange in order to improve safety, which reduces accidents and consequently save lives, hence the need of the Vehicular Ad Hoc Network “VANET”, which makes possible the inter-vehicle communication. This network is characterized by a variable topology. Therefore, MANET (Mobile Adhoc NETwork) routing protocols need a few tweaks to be available for the vehicle environment. In this paper, we start by exposing some works related to the evaluation of the most well-known protocols. After a comparative study, we deduce that the OLSR (Optimized Link State Routing) protocol outperforms other routing protocols in terms of End-to-End Delay (EED) and Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR). In addition, we note that the Greedy forwarding “GF” mechanism is suited for the VANET environment, which has been improved and called Greedy forwarding Advanced “GFA”, to overcome the stationary node problem. Our approach improves the OLSR protocol to be more suitable and efficient for VANET by introducing the GFA mechanism. Moreover, we compare our approach to the OLSR classic version. In this work, we use a realistic scenario from Open Street Map (OSM), and simulations are performed using SUMO (Simulation of Urban MObility). The trace files generated from SUMO are used for further simulation in NS-3 (Network Simulator) to validate our proposition. The simulation results are analyzed and discussed. Our approach performs best compared to OLSR in terms of EED and PDR, especially for dense traffic. © 2022 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland.
