The increasing demands of several emergent services brought new communication problems to vehicular networks (VNs). It is predicted that the transmission system assimilated with unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) fulfills the requirement of next-generation vehicular network. Because of its higher flexible mobility, the UAV-aided vehicular network brings transformative and far-reaching benefits with extremely high data rates; considerably improved security and reliability; massive and hyper-fast wireless access; much greener, smarter, and longer 3D communications coverage. The clustering technique in UAV-aided VN is a difficult process because of the limited energy of UAVs, higher mobility, unstable links, and dynamic topology. Therefore, this study introduced an Enhanced Artificial Gorilla Troops Optimizer–based Clustering Protocol for a UAV-Assisted Intelligent Vehicular Network (EAGTOC-UIVN). The goal of the EAGTOC-UIVN technique lies in the clustering of the nodes in UAV-based VN to achieve maximum lifetime and energy efficiency. In the presented EAGTOC-UIVN technique, the EAGTO algorithm was primarily designed by the use of the circle chaotic mapping technique. Moreover, the EAGTOC-UIVN technique computes a fitness function with the inclusion of multiple parameters. To depict the improved performance of the EAGTOC-UIVN technique, a widespread simulation analysis was performed. The comparison study demonstrated the enhancements of the EAGTOC-UIVN technique over other recent approaches.
