In the process of development, there has been a drastic increase in the speed as well as the number of vehicles. With the increase in number of vehicles there the aroused the need for Intelligent Transport Scenario with efficiency in terms of reduced travel time, zero congestion (traffic jams), etc. Thus the way for using intelligent traffic system got fulfilled in the form Vehicular Ad hoc Network (VANET). The use of VANET include the communication between the vehicular nodes to circulate information like speed, destination of a node, proposed way, etc. to other nodes. In all the applications related to Vehicular Ad Hoc Network include traffic management, traffic bypassing, etc. The other cited application of VANET that is coming into light is in Emergency services. In addition to the use of siren as in ambulance, fire trucks, police cars, etc. there can be use of communication between the emergency vehicle and other vehicles so that other vehicles can be warned about presence of emergency vehicle. In this paper, the VANET scenario has been simulated wherein the emergency vehicle communicates with other vehicles. The simulation has been carried out using MOVE, Simulation of Urban Mobility (SUMO) and Network Simulator (NS2). Keywords: Priority Vehicle, VANET, AOMDV, SUMO, MOVE, NS2. I. INTRODUCTION The improved lifestyle has increased the number of vehicles running on road using limited resources which has consequently increased the amount of congestion Along with the increased need of transportation and the intelligent transport, the incorporation of wireless communication has become the prime need. Also the safety institutions are increasingly depending on the incorporated wireless communication techniques during the emergency operations like fire rescue, road accident, etc. During the emergency response trip, the emergency vehicle itself is at highest risk of getting into an accident as it is travelling at much higher speed than other vehicles. Thus the incorporation of communication units in the emergency vehicle will be of higher utility in order to safeguard the vehicle. The above mentioned requirement can be solely accomplished with the presence of VANET in the scenario. VANETs are termed to be an important development that can provide significant contribution in emergency services and road safety. VANET is the major sub part of Mobile Ad Hoc Network. In all the VANET network incorporate methodology of communication between the vehicular nodes in order to transmit the vehicular data of one node to other nodes which can be used for adding intelligence to the traffic flow and increase the efficiency of transportation. In this paper, the major objective is to reduce the travel time of emergency vehicle and to avoid the congestion in its path by informing the presence of emergency vehicle before handed to other normal vehicles. Every driver must be familiar with the situation when the sound of siren from approaching emergency vehicle is heard and struggle for finding the correct move is started. If the destination and the path that will be followed by emergency vehicle, is known by the other vehicles, then the reaction and movements of other vehicles will be in controlled and efficient way. In addition with the problem in regards of delay, another seriously heading issue is the crashes of the emergency vehicle itself. The main requirement for communication in emergency vehicle during emergency situation is real time communication and low delay transmission. Thus the above mentioned requirements have been evaluated with the evaluation of parameters like throughput, end to end delay and packet delivery ratio. The parameters have been evaluated against varying number of regular vehicles in the scenario. Fig. 1.Vehicular traffic using VANET
