The routing protocols designed for wired networks can hardly be used for mobile ad-hoc networks due to limited bandwidth of wireless transmission and unpredictable topological change. Recently, several routing protocols for mobile ad-hoc networks have been Proposed. However, when theme protocols are applied to support real time services like multimedia transmission, they still have problems in ad-hoc networks, where the topology changes drastically. In this paper, we propose a new route selection algorithm which selects the most reliable route that is impervious to route failures by topological changes by mobile hoots. For reliable route selection, the concept of virtual zone (stable zone and caution zone) is proposed. The zone is located in a mobile node'transmission range and determined by mobile node's mobility information received by Global Positioning System (GPS). The proposed algorithm is applied to the route discovery procedure of the existing on-demand routing protocol, AODV, and evaluated by simulation in various traffic conditions and mobility patterns.

In this paper, we designed and proposed new routing algorithm that can support a variety of vital-sign traffic characteristic and could be applicable to USN for telemedicine by using adaptive transmission power level and increase frequency of routing request message. In proposed routing algorithm, when an emergency vital-sign traffic is applied, we use large transmission power to reduce route query response time and make the priority order in route process. On the other hand, for non emergency vital-sign traffic, we use low transmission power and adaptive decrease frequency of routing request message. which is insensitive to delay. The proposed scheme should be better QoS performance in complex USN than conventional method, which is performed based on uniform transmission power level.

Fast restoration time and service guarantee are the important goals to achieve the network reliability. In the protection switching scheme, one way to guarantee service fro an application session if a network happens to fail is to establish the restoration path that amounts to the same bandwidth of the working path of the session at the same time. When we setup the restoration path, we can reduce the bandwidth consumption by the restoration path if the path can share the bandwidth required by the other paths. This paper explains the methods how to determine the shared bandwidth of the restoration path in the protection switching scheme, given the maximum bandwidth assigned to a link along the working path. We point out that such sharing algorithm can not reduce the bandwidth consumption by the restoration paths in some cases, which contradict the general conception. We explain why this can happen, and show the simulation results in real network topologies to prove our arguments. We explain the reason of the failure of the sharing effect by the simple sharing algorithm. Finally we propose the way of how we can overcome the failure of the sharing effect, using the complete sharing algorithm based on the link database and showing the results.

Routing and wavelength assignment(RWA) problem is an important issue in optical transport networks based on wavelength division multiplexing(WDM) technique. It is typically solved using a combination of linear programming and graph coloring, or path selection based graph algorithms. Such methods are either complex or make extensive use of heuristics. In this paper we propose a novel and efficient approach which basically obtains the maximum edge disjoint paths (EDPs) for each source-destination demand pair. And those EDPs obtained are stored in Lookup Table and used for the update of weight matrix. Routes are determined in order by the weight matrix for the demand set. The comprehensive computer simulation shows that the Proposed algorithm uses similar or fewer wavelengths with significantly less execution time than bounded greedy approach (BGA) for EDP which is currently known to be effective in practice.

An ad hoc network is infra(Base Sstation or Access Point) free wireless mobile communication technology. Mobile nodes function as routers and servers in ad hoc networks. Many routing protocols for ad hoc network have been proposed. If any route is broken owing to moving node, source must repair broken route again. But route repair technology after route collapses is not suitable to transmit real-time data packet for QoS guarantee. So this paper presents route repair technology that prevents route from breaking. If intermediate node moves to critical section, the node issues handoff packet and sends the packet to the next node. After next node receives handoff packet, the node broadcasts route request packet to the previous node for intermediate node. Finally, even if intermediate node moves out of the routing region, the source can continuously transmit data packets to the destination through the new path.

이동 임시 무선망은 잦은 망 구성의 변화, 라우터의 수, 제한된 사용 자원 등 기존 유선 네트워크와는 다른 특성들을 가지게 된다. 따라서 기존의 유선 네트워크에서 사용하던 라우팅 프로토콜들을 이동 임시 무선망에 그대로 적용시킨다면 많은 문제점들이 발생하게 된다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 라우팅 프로토콜은 이동 임시 무선망의 특성을 고려하여, 네트워크 내의 이동 호스트를 멀티 홉을 갖는 클러스터로 묶고. 클러스터 헤드로 하여금 자신의 멤버 호스트들과 이웃 클러스터들의 헤드 정보를 유지하게 하여, 경로 설정에 대한 요구가 있을 때에 적은 지연 시간과 적은 패킷으로 목적지까지의 최단 경로를 설정할 수 있도록 한다. 또한 경로 설정과 데이터 전송 모두가 클러스터 헤드를 이용한다. 이러한 경우 모든 데이터와 경로설정 시 발생하는 패킷들이 클러스터 헤드로 집중되어 네트워크 부하가 발생하게 되는데 본 제안에서는 네트워크의 부하를 줄이기 위하여 후보 클러스터 헤드를 이용하는 방법을 제시한다.

We propose a new MPLS restoration scheme that uses network resources more efficiently and minimizes the backup path cost effectively. Contrary to other restoration strategies, the proposed restoration scheme starts the recovery action at the selected node of a working LSP. At LSP setup, the working and backup path cost is evaluated and the starting node of restoration is designated. By doing so, the restoration speed could be further increased and resource utilization could be maximized. We simulated the proposed scheme and compared with other restoration and protection schemes. The result shows that our scheme can provide fast restoration with acceptable delay and loss characteristics.

The distance of sensor nodes is an important factor in having influence on capability of networks in underwater acoustic sensor networks. Our proposed scheme is to establish an efficient distance to design a route of communication in underwater environment and it proposes a Level scheme that the areas divided by transmit/receive distance in network are given different levels. Our proposed scheme is pursued research to maintain a established route and maximize an energy efficiency. The established route will have fluid modification by an internal and external factors and it will construct more robust underwater sensor networks over our proposed multiple path configuration scheme.

애드혹 네트워크는 무선 모바일 기기들만으로 구성 가능한 네트워크로서 무선 모바일기기의 특성상 제한된 에너지를 사용하게 된다. On-Demand 방식의 DSR(Dynamic Source Routing), PSR(Power-aware Source Routing)은 애드 혹 네트워크의 특성에 적합한 라우팅 프로토콜로 경로 탐색 시 브로드 캐스팅을 통해 단말기의 이동성과 전력 보유량을 고려하여 경로를 설정한다. 이러한 경로 탐색 기법은 네트워크를 구성하는 노드 수에 비례하여 경로 탐색시 소모되는 에너지 오버헤드가 증가하므로 대량의 노드들로 이루어진 애드혹 네트워크에서는 상당한 에너지 낭비를 초래한다. HPSR(Hierarchical Power-aware Source Routing)은 이러한 경로 탐색 오버헤드 문제를 보조경로를 이용해 감소 시켰지만, 초기 주 경로가 결정되는 시간에 보조경로 역시 동시에 결정 되는 특성을 가지고 있어, 경로를 이루는 노드의 에너지 정보가 시간적으로 낙후되고 실제 사용 시에는 에너지 효율이 낮은 경로가 되는 문제점이 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 노드들의 최신 에너지 정보로 부분 경로 설정을 함으로써 경로 탐색 오버헤드를 감소시킴과 동시에 변경된 경로의 에너지 효율도 최적화 시킬 수 있는 기법을 제안 한다.

MANET(Mobile Ad hoc Network)은 기지국(Base Station)이나 AP(Access Point)와 같은 고정된 네트워크 인프라의 도움 없이 임시망을 구성하는 무선 단말 노드들의 집합이다. MANET의 단말들은 단말로서의 데이터 전송 역할 뿐만 아니라 라우터, 서버로서의 역할도 동시에 수행 하여야 한다. 또한 노드의 이동 패턴, 링크 품질, 잔존 배터리의 양 등에 따라 네트워크 토폴로지가 변할 수 있으므로, 모바일 노드들 간의 통신을 위한 경로 설정과 유지가 매우 어렵다. 따라서 효과적으로 모바일 노드 간에 경로를 설정하고 유지하기 위한 라우팅 프로토콜에 대한 많은 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 대표적인 On-demand 방식인 AODV 프로토콜을 개선하여 목적지 노드에서 경로 복구 절차를 시작함으로써 기존 설정된 경로를 최대한 이용하여 경로복구 과정에서 제어 트래픽 오버헤드 및 데이터 패킷의 손실을 최소화하기 위한 라우팅 프로토콜을 제안한다.
