Abstract
This chapter highlights the importance of vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANETs) in the context of the 5G-enabled smarter cities and roads, a topic that attracts significant interest. In order for VANETs and its associated applications to become a reality, a very promising avenue is to bring together multiple wireless technologies in the architectural design. 5G is envisioned to have a heterogeneous network architecture. Clustering is employed in designing optimal VANET architectures that successfully use different technologies. Therefore, clustering has the potential to play an important role in the 5G-VANET-enabled solutions. This chapter presents a survey of clustering approaches in the VANET research area. The survey provides a general classification of the clustering algorithms, presents some of the most advanced and latest algorithms in VANETs, and it is among the fewest works in the literature that reviews the performance assessment of clustering algorithms.

MANET: Enhanced Lightweight Sybil Attack Detection Technique
Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks. When principles of MANET are applied in domain of vehicles, they form VANETs. A generic term used to define VANETs is inter-vehicle communication (IVC). The vehicles are fitted with sensors. These sensors interact with the sensors of other vehicles or the infrastructure present outside.
