Popis: This paper proposes joint mobile node participation and routing protocol for multi-hop device-to-device (MD2D) networking in intelligent transportation systems, called fuzzy-based participation and routing protocol for MD2D (FPRM). Our proposed protocol is designed to operate over future open-radio access networks (O-RANs). We introduce a sub-layer at the network layer that can determine nodes with the highest participation probability in routing using a fuzzy logic system, thus building a framework to create more stable routes. To ensure the participating nodes are capable of handling the data traffic, two constraints are proposed, mobility and coverage constraints. The former enables the creation of sustainable communication links, and the latter enforces the communication service to the entire MD2D network. Simulation results show that our approach can increase the network lifetime, decrease the end-to-end (E2E) delay, and increase the packet delivery ratio (PDR) compared to the existing proactive routing protocol. Our protocol outperforms the benchmarked MD2D protocols and other investigated ad hoc protocols.
