    Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks play a crucial role in enabling Smart City applications by facilitating seamless communication between vehicles and infrastructure. This study evaluates the throughput performance of different routing protocols, specifically AODV, AODV:TOM, AODV:DEM, GPSR, GPSR:TOM, and GPSR:DEM, under various city and highway scenarios in complex networks. The analysis covers key parameters including traffic generation, packet sizes, mobility speeds, and pause times. Results indicate that TOM and DEM profiles significantly improve throughput compared to traditional AODV and GPSR protocols. GPSR:TOM achieves the highest throughput across most scenarios, making it a promising solution for high-performance data transmission in Smart Cities. For instance, GPSR:TOM achieves an average throughput of 3.2 Mbps in city scenarios compared to 2.8 Mbps for GPSR, while in highway scenarios, the throughput increases to 3.6 Mbps. Additionally, AODV:DEM records a throughput of 3.4 Mbps for high traffic generation, outperforming AODV:TOM at 3.1 Mbps and baseline AODV at 2.7 Mbps. The findings highlight the importance of optimizing data throughput to ensure reliability and efficiency in complex vehicle interconnection systems, which are critical for traffic management, accident prevention, and real-time communication in smart urban environments

    The rise of autonomous vehicles necessitates advanced communication networks for effective data exchange. The routing protocols Ad hoc On-Demand Distance Vector (AODV) and Greedy Perimeter Stateless Routing (GPSR) are vital in mobile networks (MANETs) and vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs). However, their performance is affected by changing network conditions. This study examines key routing parameters—MaxJitter, Hello/Beacon Interval, and route validity time—and their impact on AODV and GPSR performance in urban and highway scenarios. The simulation results reveal that increasing MaxJitter enhances AODV throughput by 12% in cities but decreases it by 8% on highways, while GPSR throughput declines by 15% in cities and 10% on highways. Longer Hello intervals improve AODV performance by 10% in urban settings but reduce it by 6% on highways. Extending route validity time increases GPSR’s Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR) by 10% in cities, underscoring the need to optimize routing parameters for enhanced VANET performance.
