This paper proposes two improvements to the Network Layer (Layer 3) that improves the performance in Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks or VANETs. Specifically, it describes a new addressing scheme called Zone Based Geographic IPv6 Addressing, and a new routing algorithm called Contention Based Multi-protocol Hybrid VANET Routing. Our addressing scheme incorporates current locations into the IP address and our routing algorithm handles our location-dependent addresses, and also handles queries targeted to a geographic location and not a particular vehicle. We demonstrate using detailed VANET simulations that our proposed algorithms significantly outperform existing algorithms.
