In order to evaluate the performance of typical ad hoc routing protocols—in particular‚ we used Dynamic MANET On Demand (DYMO)—in such VANET scenarios‚ we combined microsimulation of road traffic and event-driven network simulation. Thus‚ we were able to analyze protocols of the Internet protocol suite in VANET scenarios with highly accurate mobility models
