- This article identifies interactions and highways as a major potential hazard for vehicle drivers. The proposed cooperative volunteer protocol could successfully detect NLOS situations and solve them effectively and efficiently for both the intersections in urban areas and the highway scenarios. This is essential in vehicle networks, as it can significantly reduce accidents and save lives. The simulation results showed that the proposed protocol outperformed the GRANT protocol (which is considered as a standard) with regard to several metrics such as packet delivery ratio, neighborhood awareness, channel utilisation, overhead, and latency.
