This document analyzes routing challenges in Vehicular Sensor Networks (VSNs), where high mobility, dynamic topology, and heavy data loads limit traditional protocols. It highlights the limitations of OLSR and introduces Cognitive Radio (CR) to dynamically detect unused spectrum and enhance routing reliability. The paper reviews existing VSN routing, clustering, and energy-optimization techniques, including K-means and Ant Colony algorithms. It also discusses security issues such as malicious reporting, privacy risks, and network vulnerabilities. Overall, the study emphasizes improving VSN routing efficiency, reducing energy consumption, and strengthening security for intelligent transportation systems.
