Vehicular ad hoc network is one of the most promising applications of MANET. However, they have special properties such as high mobility, network portioning and constrained topology which require smaller latency and higher reliability. These vehicles that move along the same road are able to communicate either directly to the destination or by using the intermediate node, such as router. Therefore, designing an efficient routing protocol for all VANETs scenarios is very hard. A lot of researches about routing in VANETs are considering DSDV routing protocol as the most suitable protocol for mobility environment. But DSDV generates a large volume of control packets and takes up a large part of available bandwidth. In this paper, we propose an improving DSDV routing protocol based on multi-agent system approach to solve the performance problems mentioned above. Experimental results show promising results regarding the adoption of the proposed approach.
