MDRP: Message dissemination with re-route planning method for emergency vehicle information exchange

Emergency vehicles (EVs) are significant in disseminating sensitive information across the road-side communication networks. This amalgamation of vehicles and communication networks improves the reachability and accessibility of sensitive data along the driving scenario. However, the communication network experiences data and traffic congestion due to wireless medium and varying vehicle densities. In order to address the problem of data and traffic congestion, this paper introduces message dissemination with re-route planning (MDRP) method. This method initiates a dissemination boundary for selecting neighbors and weight for selecting the re-routing path. The weight is based on the traffic conditions of the road segment along with consideration of the timeout of the EV message. The joint process of rerouting and data transmission is supported by dependent queue management for improving the message delivery and reducing the impact of delaying instances in the travelling path.
