In the near future vehicular networks (VANETs)
based on wireless technology will be part of our daily lives.
VANETs enable vehicles that are not necessarily within the
same to communicate with each other. They also allow vehicles
to connect to Roadside Units (RSUs), which are connected to
the Internet, forming a backbone mesh that offers the capability
of communicating with each other and with roaming vehicles.
This paper, proposes a routing scheme for VANETs that makes
use of Distributed Hierarchical Location Service (DHLS). This
scheme exploits the RSU network and Hierarchical Location
Service to efficiently route packets between far away vehicles in
the VANET. The DHLS is called to get the destination position
when the target node position is not known. We evaluate our
system using ns2 simulation, and the results demonstrate the
feasibility and efficiency of our proposed scheme in terms of
query delay, packet delivery ratio, and generated traffic.
