Abstract

Vehicular Ad Hoc Network (VANET) simulation is a key feature in validating the protocols dedicated for VANET applications. Since the vehicles mobility is driven by the human mobility characteristics and controlled by the geographical restrictions of the roads, the work presented in this paper is aimed to having a realistic mobility model that incorporates both the social aspects of human mobility together with the geographical restrictions that governs the movement of the mobile nodes.
