Fig. 15.4 High bandwidth request scenario

To service the on-demand network requirements, we assume that some of the

vehicles travelling on expressway are trying to download or upload a large amount
of data as shown in Fig. 15.4. But because of relatively slow network connection
and high speed of vehicles, they are unable to do so.
These vehicles will send a request packet to RSU to extend the network
bandwidth for availing high-speed network. This request is forwarded to SDN by
using the RSU controller. After analysing the speed and location of the vehicle,
the SDN will provide a list of customized services that are available to the vehicle
through the RSU controller. The user can choose the network services according to
his/her need, for example, uploading and downloading speed required, time period
for which data requires. After choosing the services, this request will be further
processed by an SDN controller. The SDN controller will send this data along with
parameters of network service, which are the speed of data and amount of data to the
RSU controller. The RSU controller will then send a message specifying the details
for the same by taking the location and speed of the vehicle into account. The RSU
will also calculate the total usage and other accounting information of the user once
the service has been availed.

15.5 Conclusion

With the aim to propose smart data communication model for high-speed vehicles,
this proposed system presents a data communication scheme based on the SDN
paradigm by combining the RSU and the RSU controllers in order to efficiently
15 SDVN-Based Smart Data Dissemination Model for High-Speed Road Networks 269

support the vehicle requirements on express highways. The whole model works
under the supervision of a centralized SDN controller to improve the efficiency and
reliability of vehicular networks for high-speed vehicles. Along with providing a
safe journey through the expressway, the proposed system also provides a number of
other services for vehicles moving in high speed through the network. By effectively
utilizing this system, the vehicle users can avail both comfortable and safe road
transport that are the two primary objectives of the Intelligent Transportation
System. We are now working on integrating each of these services and evaluating
them so as to provide benefit of the proposed architecture while also developing a
holistic service framework for high-speed roads and future automated vehicles.
