Abstract
This is a simulation study of weight-based and precedence-based clustering paradigms in VANETs under an experimentally-derived channel model. The study reveals that CH election schemes accounting for driver intention form more stable and long-lived clusters. The results also show that ignoring elements of the VANET channel (such as vehicular shadowing) results in an unreliable comparative analysis of protocol performance.
