Abstract

Self-organizing hierarchical ad hoc network (SOHAN) is a new ad-hoc network architecture designed to improve the scalability properties of conventional 'flat' ad hoc networks. This network architecture consists of three tiers of ad-hoc nodes, i.e.. access points, forwarding nodes and mobile nodes. This paper presents a topology discovery and routing protocol for the self-organization of SOHAN. We propose a cross-layer path metric based on link quality and MAC delay which plays a key role in producing an optimal cluster-based hierarchical topology with high throughput capacity. The topology discovery protocol provides the basis for routing which takes place in layer 2.5 using MAC addresses. The routing protocol is based on AODV with appropriate modifications to take advantage of the hierarchical topology and interact with the discovery protocol. Simulation results are presented which show the improved performance as well as scalability properties of SOHAN in terms of through-put capacity, end-to-end delay, packet delivery ratio and control overhead.

자율구성 계층구조 에드혹 네트워크(Self-organizing hierarchical ad hoc network, SOHAN)는 편평구조 에드혹 네트워크의 확장성을 향상시키기 위해 설계된 새로운 형태, 즉, 액세스 포인트, 전달 노드, 이동 노드의 3 계층의 애드혹 노드로 구성된 네트워크 구조이다. 본 논문에서는 SOHAN의 자율구성을 위한 토폴로지 탐색과 라우팅 프로토콜을 소개한다. 또한 높은 전송 용량을 갖는 최적의 클러스터 기반 계층구조 토폴로지를 형성하기 위한 링크 품질 및 MAC 지연 시간 기반의 크로스레이어 설계방식의 경로 척도를 제안한다. 토폴로지 탐색 프로토콜은 2.5 계층에서 MAC 주소를 기반으로 동작하는 라우팅 프로토콜을 위한 기본적인 정보를 제공한다. 이 라우팅 프로토콜은 AODV 프로토콜을 기반으로 하며, 계층구조의 장점을 활용하기 위해 토폴로지 탐색 프로토콜과 상호 연동하도록 설계된다. 시뮬레이션을 통해 전송용량, 종단간 지연시간, 패킷 전달률, 제어 오버헤드 관점에서 SOHAN의 우수한 성능과 확장성을 보인다.
