Virtual Location Information based Routing Scheme in Wireless Ad-Hoc Networks  

Youn, JooSang (The Department Of Multimedia Engineering, Dong-Eui University)
Abstract
Recently, location information based routing protocol has been studied to estimate end-to-end path in wireless ad-hoc network. This protocol assumes all nodes can get heir location information via GPS devices and floods only limited area with routing message through acquired location information. Therefore, this protocol has advantage that can reduce the number of routing message than the existing IP-based routing protocols. In addition, all nodes enabling this protocol must acquire their own location information to participate in the location-based routing. However, recent because of the miniaturization of sensor node, sensor node without GPS function has been launched. Therefore in case of the sensor node that does not know location information, it is impossible to participate in the ad hoc network configuration and location information based routing. In this paper, a virtual location information based routing scheme is proposed for wireless nodes without GPS function to be able to participate in location information based routing within ad hoc network environments consisting of wireless nodes with GPS function and wireless nodes without GPS function. Therefore, the proposed protocol has the advantage that a wireless node without a GPS function is able to participate in ad hoc network configuration and the location information based routing.
