Abstract

Vehicular Ad-Hoc Networks (VANETs) play a crucial role in enabling intelligent transportation systems (ITS) by providing real-time communication between vehicles and infrastructure. Quality of Service (QoS) provisioning is a critical challenge in VANETs, given their dynamic nature, high mobility, and varying communication conditions. This article provides a comparative study of various QoS optimization techniques in VANETs, focusing on their performance, scalability, and efficiency in meeting the diverse requirements of vehicular communications. The study evaluates existing QoS models, protocols, and strategies, identifying the strengths and weaknesses of each approach and offering insights into their practical applications.
