Abstract: Wireless Mobile Ad hoc network is the foundation for the Vehicular Ad hoc Network which plays a pivotal role in disseminative safety information to the general public and can be used in commercial applications. Challenging issue in VANET is routing of data, due to swift mobility of vehicles and the network topology which changes with time and speed. Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) routing protocols cannot fully solve the unique characteristics in vehicular networks. Vehicular Ad hoc Networks system enables the intercommunication between the vehicles by allowing them exchange the traffic data or information. Such kind of exchange of information may create privacy apprehension since the vehicle-generated information can contain much confidential information of the vehicle and its driver. Vehicular networks throw a plenty of unique challenges. The traffic information in the network may greatly affect the traffic decisions. Traffic View is a mechanism that can be routed with a vehicle as the future aspect. In this paper, Energy Aware Methodical Data Forwarding (EAMDF) Mechanism in Vehicular Ad hoc Networks is proposed, Information about the node is collected which is situated at the edge of radio range of the sender node (because of its proximity to the sender and as the information has to move in line with the destination route) and then the packet is transmitted by using the trustworthy greedy position based routing approach through that node. The key aspect of EAMDF mechanism is to prolong the energy of the nodes as well as increasing the packet delivery ratio. The results show that the through put is increased by 50%, packet delivery ratio is increased by 12.5% and also energy is prolonged in the network lifetime compared to other algorithms.
