Vehicular ad-hoc network (VANET), a kind of mobile ad-hoc network (MANET), is a key technology for building intelligent transportation system (ITS). VANET is automatically and temporarily established through vehicle-to-vehicle communication without network infrastructure. It has the characteristics that frequent changes of network topology and node density are occurred and messages are disseminated through several relay nodes in the network. Due to frequent change of network topology and node density, however, VANET requires an effective relay node selection scheme to disseminate messages through the multi-hop broadcast. In this paper, we propose a contention window based multi-hop broadcast scheme for VANET. Each node has an optimized contention window and competes with each other for a relay node. The experimental results show that the proposed scheme has a better performance than the distance-based deterministic broadcast scheme in terms of message propagation delay and network traffic.

무선 애드 혹 네트워크의 사용이 증가함에 따라 네트워크의 보안 또한 매우 중요하게 인식되어 지는 추세이지만, 현재 무선 애드 혹 네트워크의 보안성 표준안에 대한 정의가 미흡한 상황이다. 현재까지 많은 연구를 통해 제안된 키 관리 프로토콜은 오직 특정 상황에만 적용 가능한 단점을 가지고 있다. 2005년 무선 애드 혹 네트워크에서 안전한 그룹 통신을 위한 새로운 키 합의 프로토콜인 CRTDH 프로토콜이 제안되었다[1]. 이 프로토콜은 효율적으로 그룹 키를 계산할 수 있고, 멤버들의 높은 이동성을 지원한다. 하지만 그룹 키 설정 과정에서 공격자가 송신자와 수신자 사이에서 전달되는 메시지를 위조 할 수 있고, 키의 재설정 과정에서 그룹이 변경 되어도 이전 그룹 키와 동일하게 계산 될 수 있다. 즉 중간자(Man-in-the-middle) 공격과 LCM(Least Common Multiple) 공격에 취약하다. 본 논문에서는 두 가지 공격에 대한 해결책을 제시하여 보안성이 강화된 그룹 키 합의 프로토콜을 제안한다.

Wireless mesh network, which is an access network technology, adopts ubiquitous features of ad-hoc network that includes capabilities of self-configuration and self-management. This paper proposes a scheme which enables nodes along route in wireless mesh network to authenticate data and verify data integrity. The scheme distinguishes infra-node, which is a network device used to form mesh network, and user node in ad-hoc network, which operates functions as a sender, receiver or relayer, to deploy different authentication scheme. That is, hop-based authentication scheme along route forming wireless backbone differs from authentication scheme for user nodes in route over MANET. The proposed scheme is less complex than previously proposed schemes from the repects of security setup procedures and managements. In addition, the scheme is able to reduce transmission delay from a source to a destination owing to fast authentication over wireless backbone.

For extending of hot-spot of WLAN, (2) proposes internetworking scheme between wireless LAN (WLAN) and mobile ad-hoc network (MANET), which employ the same layer-2 protocol with different mode. Compared to internetworking schemes between UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunications Systems) and WLAN (3-4), the scheme from (2) has relatively low overhead and latencies because WLAN and MANET are physically and logically similar to each other. However, the mode switching algorithm proposed in r2] for internetworking between WLAN and MANET only considers signal strength and determines handoff, and mobile nodes following a zigzag course in pollution area may perform handoff at short intervals. Furthermore, (2) employs mobile IPv6 (MIPv6) at base, which brings still high delay on handoff and overhead due to signal message exchange. In this paper, we present optimized internetworking scheme between WLAN and MANET, modified from (2). To settle ping-pong handoff from (2), we propose adaptive mode switching algorithm. HMIPv6 is employed for IP connectivity and mobility service in WLAN, which solves some shortcomings, such as high handoff overhead and vulnerable security. For routing in MANET, OLSR is employed, which is a proactive Protocol and has optimally reduced signal broadcasting overhead. OLSR operates with current P protocol compatibly with no change or modification. The proposed internetworking scheme based on adaptive mode switching algorithm shows better performance than scheme from (2).

By the progress of communication and hardware technology, It is possible to organize wireless sensor nodes using the tiny sensor in recently. It is a critical aspect to minimize energy consumption for long-term lively sensor because wireless sensor nodes are associated with the available resources. The wireless sensor network is restricted in communication, exhaustion of power, and computation but it is very similar an Ad-Hoc network. Each sensor node products a few data and application layer of each sensor has slow transmitting feature. Unlike Ad-hoc, which is usually source or sink, base station of the each senor nodes works as sink and the other nodes except sink node works as source. Generally, wireless sensor network keep staying fixed state and observing circumstances continuously after setting up. It doesnt fit for the wireless sensor networks under functioning of existing ad-hoc networks because original Ad-Hoc network routing protocol couldnt operate for wireless sensor network features. This thesis propose the effective routing protocol way in the filed of the expanded routing protocol based on tree with considering on the characteristic of wireless sensor networks pattern.

This paper proposes a Tabu search algorithm to minimize the required energy to send data between a source and a destination using the cooperative communication in wireless ad hoc networks. As the number of nodes in wireless ad hoc networks increases, the amount of calculation for establishing the path between nodes would be too much increased. To obtain the optimal cooperative path within a reasonable computation time, we propose a new Tabu search algorithm for a high-density wireless network. In order to make a search more efficient, we propose some efficient neighborhoods generating operations of the Tabu search algorithm. We evaluate those performances through some experiments in terms of the minimum energy required to send data between a source and a destination as well as the execution time of the proposed algorithm. The comparison results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms other existing algorithms.

The mobility of nodes are different in wireless ad hoc networks. Routes have to be refreshed frequently due to the mobility of the nodes acting as routers. Path consists of a few highly mobile nodes should be avoided to forward packets, because even only one highly mobile node may result in the break of path. We develop a mobility aware method to evaluate path stability for multipath routing in wireless Ad Hoc networks. Specifically, we extend it to a well-studied multipath routing protocol known as ad hoc on-demand multipath distance vector (AOMDV). The resulting protocol is referred to as path stability evaluation (PSE). Performance comparison of AOMDV with PSE are studied through ns-2. Simulation shows that PSE has optimistic results in performance metrics such as packet delivery, end-to-end delay, routing overhead and throughput.

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.
