Ad-hoc 네트워크에서 AODV 라우팅 프로토콜의 경로 설정에 대한 성능 분석과 개선 방식은 이미 많은 논문에서 다루고 있다. 하지만 기존 방식들은 대부분 네트워크 부하가 적은 경우만을 고려하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 그와 같은 상황 제약에 따른 단편적인 성능 검증을 극복하기 위해 많은 노드가 참여하고 트래픽 양이 많은 Ad-hoc 네트워크에서 트래픽양의 변화에 따른 성능을 시뮬레이션을 통해 분석하였다. 트래픽 양이 많을 경우, 기존의 AODV 라우팅 프로토콜의 성능이 훨씬 떨어지는 것을 알 수 있었다. 본 논문에서는 분석결과를 토대로 노드의 라우팅 테이블 Entry 수를 확인하여 혼잡도를 고려한 후 경로 탐색 여부를 결정하는 기법을 제안하고 성능을 분석하였다. 분석 결과 제안된 방식이 기존의 AODV specification[5]을 크게 수정하지 않으면서도 패킷 수신율 및 Drop율 등의 성능을 개선하는 효과가 있었으나 패킷 전달 속도에서는 경로가 분산 또는 우회되어 약간 길어진다는 것을 확인하였다.

In order to sufficiently utilize the potential effectiveness of ATM networks, systematic and effective network management and control systems must be employed. In addition to network design, planning, and call routing techniques used in traditional circuit-switched networks. ATM networks can provide logical VP(Virtual Path) reconfiguration capabilities which can adapt to changes in the network environment. With a proper application of the VP reconfiguration technique, ATM networks can reduce the overhead of frequent network redesign and the overhead of call routing processing. However, ATM VP reconfiguration is a very complex and difficult problem which consists of many facets of optimization subproblems such as VP routing. VP sizing, VP terminating point location and VC routing. Most previous research on the ATM logical network reconfiguration problem dealt with the subset of the problem. This paper mathematically formulates the ATM network reconfiguration problem completely considering all subproblems. Since it is very difficult to derive the optimal solution of the formulated problem, we develop a heuristic method based on a Max min bandwidth allocation principle. We show the feasibility of the proposed heuristic method with a simple example.

이동성을 가진 다수의 노드들로 구성된 Ad­Hoc 무선 네트워크는 유선망이나 기지국이 존재하지 않는 환경에서 통신망을 구성하기 위한 목적으로 연구되어 왔다. Ad­Hoc 무선 네트워크에서 라우팅 프로토콜은 이동 노드들간의 연결을 위한 경로를 제공하며, 본 논문에서는 무선 Ad­Hoc 라우팅 프로토콜 중 AODV(Ad­Hoc On­Demand Distance Vector routing)의 개선된 알고리즘을 제안하고자 한다. AODV는 경로획득, 경로유지. 경로복구의 크게 3단계로 나누어져 있고, AODV에서의 경로복구는 전체 경로를 재설정하는 것으로 많은 오버헤드를 가지고 있다. 제안한 방법에서는 링크손실로 인한 경로복구의 과정을 링크 손실이 발생한 인접 지역내에서 행하게 함으로써 전체적인 성능 향상을 가져왔다.

In this paper, we suggest an efficient path searching algorithm that reduces the hop count when each node sends a data in ZigBee networks. As the hop count reduces, the network traffic is also reduces and leads to less energy consumption. This enables the sensor network live longer with limited node power. The proposed path searching algorithm consists of two sub-algorithms. One for upstream process and the other for downstream process. When a node selects its proper routing path, the node not only uses the information of the parent and child node, but it also uses the neighbor nodes for each node. In the simulation, we changed various network environment factors such as network parameters, number of nodes, and number of neighbor nodes and observed their performances. We compare the performance to the previous ZigBee Tree routing algorithm with separate two algorithms, the upstream and the downstream, and then compare the performance when all two algorithms are applied.

Routing in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) is highly challenging because of the dynamic nature of network topology. AntHocNet is a bio-inspired routing protocol for MANETs that mimics the foraging behavior of ants. However, unlike many other MANET routing protocols, the paths constructed in AntHocNet are unidirectional, which requires a separate path setup if a route in the reverse direction is also required. Because most communication sessions are bidirectional, this unidirectional path setup approach is often inefficient. Moreover, AntHocNet suffers from looping problems because of its property of multiple paths and stochastic data routing. In this paper, we propose a modified path setup procedure that constructs bidirectional paths. We also propose solutions to some of the looping problems in AntHocNet. Simulation results show that performance is significantly enhanced in terms of overhead, end-to-end delay, and delivery ratio when loops are prevented. Performance is further improved, in terms of overhead, when bidirectional paths setup is employed.

IETF 6LoWPAN standard technique has been studied in IoT environment to support the IPv6 packet communication. 6LoWPAN protocol for transmission of packets mainly in the AODV routing protocol and a variety of extended techniques have been investigated. In particular, consisting of nodes with limited resources in a network error occurs when the 6LoWPAN reliable data transfer and fast routing method is needed. To this end, in this paper, we propose resilient routing protocol and extension of IETF LOAD algorithm, for optimal recovery path, More specifically, the optimal recovery path setup algorithm, signal flow, and detailed protocols for the verification of the reliability of packet transmission mathematical model is presented. The proposed protocol techniques to analyze the performance of the NS-3 performance through the simulation results that is end-to-end delay, throughput, packet delivery fraction and control packet overhead demonstrated excellence in comparison with existing LOAD.

Efficient service discovery mechanism is a crucial feature for the usability of a wireless ad-hoc network. A wireless ad-hoc network is a temporal network formed by a collection of wireless mobile nodes without the aid of any existing network infrastructure or centralized administration. We propose an efficient service discovery mechanism using non-disjoint multi-path routing protocol for a wireless ad-hoc network. Our scheme has advantages of not only multi-path routing protocol but also cross-layer service discovery. By simulation, we showed that faster route recovery is possible by maintaining multiple routing paths in each node, and the route maintenance overhead can be reduced by limiting the number of multiple routing paths and by maintaining link/node non-disjoint multi-path.

Due to the movement of nodes, ad-hoc networks suffer from the problems such as the decrease of data delivery ratio, the increase of end-to-end delay, and the increase of routing overhead. The backup routing schemes try to solve these problems by finding the backup routes during the route discovery phase and using them when a route fails. Generally the backup routing schemes outperform the single-path routing schemes in terms of data delivery ratio, end-to-end delay, and routing overhead when the nodes move rapidly. But when the nodes don't move rapidly, the backup routing schemes generate more routing traffics than the single-path routing schemes because they need to exchange packets to find the backup route. In addition, when the backup route fails earlier than the main route, it can not use the backup route because in many backup route algorithms, the backup route is found only at the initial route discovery phase. RBR(Reactive Backup Routing Algorithm) proposed in this paper is an algorithm that provides more stable data delivery than the previous backup routing schemes through the selective maintenance of backup route and the backup route rediscovery. To do that RBR prioritize the backup routes, and maintain and use them selectively Thus it can also decrease the routing overheads. Also, RBR can increase data delivery ratio and decrease delay because it reestablishes the backup route when the network topology changes. For the performance evaluation, OPNET simulator is used to compare RBR with the single-path routing scheme and some of the well known backup routing schemes.

MANET(Mobile Ad Hoc NETwork) is a collection of mobile nodes that are free to move and organize themselves in an arbitrary manner without any fixed infrastructures. These mobile nodes are connected by wireless links and act as routers for all other nodes in the network. As a router each node in MANET consumes its batteries when forwarding a message, and the selection of the best path to minimize the total power needed to route packets is needed to maximize the lifetime of all nodes. In this paper, we propose a routing protocol considering the remaining battery capacity of nodes in the routing paths. The proposed scheme prevents the battery of each node from being overused and increases the lifetime of the network.

Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) are popular due to their low cost and rapid deployment. Currently, many WMN researchers often considers the use of ad-hoc routing protocols because WMNs are similar to the ad-hoc networks. Some of currently deployed WMNs consider to use on-demand routing protocols such as Ad-hoc On-demand Distance Vector (AODV) and Dynamic Source Routing (DSR). But, AODV are not appropriate for Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs), because flooding-based route discovery is both redundant and expensive in terms of control message overhead. In this paper, we propose a directional AODV (D-AODV) routing protocol based on hop count to a gateway. We implement the D-AODV routing protocol and evaluate the performance of the D-AODV on the testbed. The measurement results show that the D-AODV can enhance the network throughput by reducing the routing overhead.
