Evaluating the impact of adversarial traffic patterns on vanet communication using veins simulation
Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs) are a key component of intelligent transportation systems, enabling real-time communication between vehicles. However, their open and dynamic nature makes them highly vulnerable to adversarial behaviors that can disrupt communication reliability. This paper investigates the impact of adversarial traffic patterns on VANET performance using the Veins simulation framework integrated with OMNeT++ and SUMO. We design and evaluate multiple adversarial scenarios, including message flooding, false information dissemination, and coordinated congestion attacks, under varying traffic densities and mobility conditions. The study measures key performance metrics such...
