The Internet of Things (IoT) concept is being extensively embraced in several industries, such as Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), to improve effectiveness and sustainability by utilizing advanced transportation resource data. Researching routing protocols is essential for maximizing the efficiency of dynamic Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs) in ITS.VANETS utilize wireless technology, including both cellular and non-cellular, to facilitate the transmission of information. The former offers minimal latency but is expensive to operate, but the latter is preferable for lower-data-rate applications decreases costs, and is more energy-efficient. Developing countries are currently enhancing their 5G assistance, but the financial viability of Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite technology remains low. Underdeveloped nations require cost-effective, comprehensive wireless communication solutions in both urban and rural regions. One of the prominent choices for the Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) in the 5G ecosystem is the Long Range Wide Area Network (LoRaWAN). This paper presents an enhanced routing protocol that is secure against attacks on the network and offers improved performance metrics. The protocol is designed for information routing in the proposed Vehicular Communication System (VCS). The VCS is tested to verify its efficacy in detecting blind spots. A proof-of-concept prototype for VCS is developed to integrate LoRaWAN technology with an enhanced routing protocol. This integration aims to enhance signal strength, improving communication reliability, network coverage, and security. Furthermore, the system is engineered to optimize vehicle energy efficiency, rendering it well-suited for communication in underdeveloped urban and rural regions.
