Abstract

VANET (Vehicular Ad Hoc Network) is actually an important field for the development of a variety of services. In VANET charging and billing of services could not be enabled in the same way as in 3GPP networks and MANET (Mobile Ad Hoc Network) because of the characteristics of such network namely the high speed of nodes, frequent disconnection between nodes, rapidly changing topology and the large size of the network. The purpose of this work is to propose a flexible high level charging and billing scheme to allow a high availability of the charging and billing process in VANET.
