Abstract
For the real time monitoring and tracking of shipping container which is one of the core objects for global logistics, Wireless Ad-Hoc Network technology might be needed in stacking environments such as ports, yards and ships. In this paper, we propose a container network routing protocol suitable for port or yard stacking environments which include some constraints such as shadow area problem from metal material, frequent movement of container, etc. With this protocol in which a mesh network algorithm is applied, every container data packet can be delivered to the sink node reliably even with frequent join/leave of container nodes. As soon as a node on path gets malfunction, alternative backup path is supported with notice to neighbor node, which makes constant total optimal path. We also verified that the performance of proposed protocol is better than AODV, one of previous major MANet(Mobile Ad-Hoc Network) protocol with a function for alternative path, which says the proposed protocol is better for frequent join/leave and variable link quality.
