Abstract

top
This article focuses on data aggregation in vehicular ad hoc networks. In such networks, sensor data are usually produced and exchanged between vehicles in order to warn or inform the drivers when an event is detected (e.g., accident, emergency braking, parking space released, vehicle with non-functioning brake lights, etc.). In the following, we present a solution to aggregate and store these data in order to have a history of past events. We therefore use Flajolet-Martin sketches. Our goal is to generate additional knowledge to assist drivers by providing them useful information even if no event is transmitted by vehicles in the vicinity.
