Broadcast storm migration for V2V communication

Problem statement
Vehicle to vehicle (V2V) communication has attracted a lot of attention in recent years under the umbrella of intelligent connected transportation systems. In many applications, there is no specific destination of the message, but a group of vehicles is the region of interest. Thus, broadcasting is widely used to share information. However, broadcasting messages blindly will cause broadcast storms in the network, resulting in wasted bandwidth, package collisions and message dissemination delays.
Task
You have a chance to work with a group of researchers and industrial partners on solving the broadcast storm problem for V2V communication. Depending on your interests and skills, you can carry out the project in two different directions:
- You can either review existing methods, criticize them based on clear criteria and write a survey paper in the end.
- Or you could improve the existing methods and validate your idea based on simulation/experiment. Veins simulator (based on the network simulator OMNeT++) is a tool we are using.
