Wireless sensor networks (WSN) consisting of a largenumber of sensors aims to gather data in a variety of environments and is beingused and applied in many different fields. The sensor nodes composing a sensornetwork operate on battery of limited power and as a result, high energyefficiency and long network lifetime are major goals of research in the WSN. Inthis paper we propose a novel cluster-based local multi-hop routing protocolthat enhances the overall energy efficiency and guarantees reliability in thesystem. The proposed protocol minimizes energy consumption for datatransmission among sensor nodes by forming a multi-hop in the cluster.Moreover, through local cluster head rotation scheme, it efficiently manageswaste of energy caused by frequent formation of clusters which was an issue inthe existing methods. Simulation results show that our scheme enhances energyefficiency and ensure longer network time in the sensor network as comparedwith existing schemes such as LEACH, LEACH-C and PEACH.

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.

무선 센서 노드는 한정된 자원을 가지기 때문에 에너지 효율성을 높이는 것이 필수적이다. 이를 위해서 통신 메시지를 감소시킬 수 있는 클러스터 기반 라우팅 기법이 연구되었다. 하지만 기존 연구들은 클러스터 헤더가 임의로 선정되기 때문에 헤더 노드의 위치가 편중될 수 있어 비효율적이다. 이를 해결하기 위하여 본 논문에서는 홉(hop) 수 기반의 대표 경로를 생성하여, 분산된 클러스터 헤더를 선정하여 클러스터를 구성하고, 클러스터 헤더간 멀티 홉(multihop)을 구성하는 라우팅 프로토콜을 설계한다. 대표 경로를 통해 클러스터 헤더의 위치 및 영역이 균일하게 분포되도록 선출하고, 싱크 노드의 방향을 인식함으로써 우회하지 않는 효율적인 경로를 구성한다.

In this paper, a multicast mechanism is proposed for intermittently disconnected networks where the nodes move forward in formation or within a limited area. The proposed scheme extends the well-known tree-based multicast routing mechanism called MAODV by modifying the tree construction and data delivery scheme. Especially, an algorithm is introduced which determines the flooding hop count k estimating the degree of the movement of children in the tree. The performance evaluation was done by the simulation and the proposed scheme was compared with MAODV and two multicast routing schemes for DTN (Disruption Tolerant Network) including the Epidemic routing and ST-multicast. The evaluation results show that our scheme improves the original MAODV from the aspect of tree reconstruction events and message delivery ratio. Compared with the Epidemic routing scheme, our scheme achieves 85% message delivery ratio with less than 50% message delivery overhead.

In large-scale MANETs, the performance of MANET routing protocols is degraded significantly. To avoid this, zone-based hierarchical architecture is proposed. In this architecture, single large-scale MANET is divided into multiple small-scale MANETs. In this paper, we propose autoconfiguration-coupled MANET routing protocol to reduce routing overhead of mim user nodes. If MANET routing protocol utilizes the autoconfigured information of each user node, its overhead or procedure can be reduced. Proposed method shows the degradation of routing overhead of user nodes via simulation.

The Vehicular Ad-hoc Network (VANET) has two main problems to be overcome due to high mobility and frequently changing density: one is short link duration time and the other is high packet loss ratio. To solve the problems, there have been many studies to predict vehicular mobility. Most of the studies try to enhance link expire time and link reliability, however the distance between two relay nodes becomes too short to have high network throughput. In this paper, we propose a new routing algorithm that considers both link expire time and network throughput in the VANET. The proposed algorithm aims to find path with long link expire time and high throughput. Our simulation results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms the legacy greedy algorithm and its variants.

We design, implement, and evaluate a user-level ad hoc network routing protocol on the COTS (commercial off-the-shelf) mobile devices. In situations such as disaster recovery, emergency communication between mobile devices is necessary. For wide deployability and usability of such a system, we design and implement the networking protocols on the user level instead of modifying the kernel of mobile devices. In order to support reliable data transfer in high mobility scenarios, we selected to implement AODV (Ad Hoc On-Demand Distance Vector) as the routing protocol and TCP as the transport layer protocol. With our implementation of ad hoc networking stack on COTS smartphones, we conducted experiments in various networking environments. Our experimental results show that ad hoc networking is possible in up to 12 hops in a line topology and 5 concurrent devices in a star topology.

We present a network coding scheme which is designed for improving throughput in multi-hop wireless network with multi-radio multi-channel. The co-channel interference and unreliability of wireless transmissions cause the wireless network to reduce throughput. In wireless network, multi-radio multi-channel technology shows benefit to cut down channel interferences and contentions. And network coding can reduce the complexity of scheduling and improve throughput by increasing usage of links in wireless network. In this paper, we propose a method of channel assignment and transmission scheduling in intra-session network coding that efficiently improve throughput for multi-hop wireless network by using mathematical modeling and linear programming. Moreover, we evaluate the performance of the intra-session network coding scheme by using AMPL with CPLEX. The simulation results show that intra-session network coding can achieve better throughput than traditional routing.

This paper focuses in the implementation of mesh router supporting multi-path routing based on IEEE 802.11s. In HWMP of IEEE 802.11s, the single path routing just was defined. So, in this work, we implemented not only the single path routing defined in IEEE 802.11s, but also a multipath routing based on AOMDV which extended the standard. A multi-channel multi-interface technology that can transmit and receive simultaneously and lower bandwidth reduction caused by interferences than a single-channel single-interface was implemented in our mesh router. We also developed an outdoor test bed with the mesh routers. The bandwidth of the mesh router and a real-time video streaming service were verified using the test bed. And, the single path and multipath routing algorithms are also compared. In this test bed, The average TCP bandwidth was 23.77 Mbps and the latency was 2.4 ms in five hops. The test bed could service real-time streaming with an average jitter of 0.547 ms in five hops. The mesh router that used the multipath routing path reduced the path recovery time by 12.73% on average.

모바일 애드 흑 네트웍(Mobile Ad Hoc Network)에서는 지금까지 라우팅 오버헤드를 줄이기 위한 많을 프로토콜이 제안되었다. 않은 애드 흑 라우팅 프로토콜은 멀티-홉(Multi-Hop) 거리에 있는 목적지 노드까지의 경로 탐색을 위해서 플러딩(Flooding)을 사용한다. 본 논문에서는 애드 혹 네트웍의 라우팅을 위한 존 플러딩(Zone Flooding)을 제안한다. 제안된 프로토콜은 존을 이용하여 경로 설정 과정에 참여하는 노드의 수를 줄이고, 또한 각 노드간의 플러딩 패킷 수를 줄설 라우팅 오버헤드를 줄일 수 있다 경로 탐색 과정에서는 계층적 노드 구조를 이용하여 라우팅에 참여하는 노드 수를 줄인다. 또한 각 노드간에는 존 플러딩 방법을 이용하여 발생되는 라우팅 패킷 수를 줄였다. 시뮬레이션은 NS2 [3]를 이용하여 기존의 라우팅 프로토콜과 제안된 프로토콜의 성능을 비교하였다.
