기존의 MANET 환경에서 동작하는 계층화된 데이터 전송 프로토콜은 각 계층이 독립적인 기능을 수행하기 때문에 노드의 이동 상황에 따라 변하는 네트워크 환경을 잘 반영하지 못하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 라우팅 계층과 MAC 계층 간의 상호 작용을 통하여 MANET의 2-홉 거리에 있는 노드 수를 반영하여 더 우수한 성능을 나타내는 Cross-Layer 모델 기반의 브로트캐스트 기법을 제안한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 Cross-Layer 모델은 IEEE 802.11 MAC 프로토콜을 수정하여 이동 노드 주위의 상태에 따라 브로드캐스트 패킷을 적응적으로 전송하도록 동작한다.

차량간 무선 통신 환경인 VANET에서 중요하게 여겨지는 문제점 중에 하나는 메시지 브로드캐스팅시 발생 가능한 메시지 폭주 현상(Broadcasting Storm)이다. 최근 무선 애드 혹 네트워크나 이동 애드 혹 네트워크(MANET) 환경에서 이를 해결하기 위해 Connected Dominating Set(CDS) 기법을 제안하여 최대한 중복된 메시지가 전달되지 않도록 하였다. MANET의 한 분야인 차량 애드 혹 네트워크(VANET)에서도 이러한 CDS 가상 백본 망을 이용하면 효율적인 메시지 전파를 기대할 수 있지만, 그 동안의 CDS 생성 기법은 노드의 속도와 방향이 고려되지 않았기 때문에 안정적인 CDS 망을 유지할 수 없다. 본 논문에서는 VANET 환경에 적합한 CDS 환경을 만들기 위해 노드의 이동성을 고려한 기존의 Timer-based CDS 생성 기법에 속도와 방향 두 가지 인자를 추가하여 Velocity-based Multi-CDS(VM-CDS) 기법을 제안하였고, 시뮬레이션을 통해 기존 방안보다 더 안정적으로 유지됨을 입증하였다.

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.

The most efficient method to reduce duplicated messages is a partial dominant pruning for receiving and forwarding messages by in-fly format on the mobile ad hoc network. In this paper, we propose directional partial dominant pruning method by expanding partial dominant pruning for reducing not only number of forwarding nodes but number of antenna elements on the ad hoc network with directional antennas. by simulation, we prove superiority that average number of forwarding nodes for each antenna element and the ratio of duplicated messages for each nodes rather than existing partial dominant pruning method though the number of antenna elements are increasing rather than in case of using omni antennas.

Recently, there have been active research efforts on devising efficient routing algorithms utilizing location information in ad-hoc mobile networks. In this paper, we propose a new method to improve the performance of the widely recognized Location Aided Routing (LAR) algorithm. To this end, we suggest the concept of accessible zone combined with the basic two schemes associated with LAR algorithm. Through the proposed algorithm, we can confine the flooding area within accessible zone, thereby reducing the routing delay.

In opposition to conventional networks, mobile ad hoc networks usually do not offer trust about nodes or online access through certificate authorities or centralized servers. But, nodes in those systems need process that can search path as well as trust each other to exchange data in safety For these reasons, traditional security measures that require online trusted authorities or certificate storages are not well-suited for securing ad hoc networks. In this paper, I propose a secure and effective method to search the optimized path using profitable flooding techniques on certificate chains in MANETS(Mobile Ad hoc NETworks). This system includes not only using routing protocols that are generally broadcasting packets but also finding nodes securely and verifing the process through tiust relationships between nodes that are searched.

Time synchronization plays an important role in mobile communication systems, particularly, when an accurate time-division mechanism among the communication entities is required. We present a new time synchronization algorithm for a wireless mobile ad-hoc network assuming that communication link is managed by a time-slot reservation-based medium access control protocol. The central idea is to reduce time synchronization packet collisions by exploiting the advantages found in reference broadcasting. In addition, we adopt a sophisticated clock updating scheme to ensure the time synchronization convergence. To verify the performance of our algorithm, a set of network simulations has been performed under various mobile ad-hoc network scenarios using the OPNET. The results obtained from the simulations show that the proposed method outperforms the conventional TSF method in terms of synchronization accuracy and convergence time.

As the mobile technology advances, file searching among the mobile device users becomes more important. In this paper, we propose the uniform grid, greedy, and MIS P2P systems that have double-layered topology to search files efficiently for mobile ad-hoc networks. In these systems, peers are classified into two groups, super-peers and sub-peers, and each super-peer manages its neighboring sub-peers. In the proposed systems, each super-peer maintains the appropriate information of its sub-peers so that when a peer requests a file, the request is sent to its super-peers and then to neighboring super-peers. Hence the proposed systems could avoid multi-broadcasting and reduce network overheads. The experimental results show that the proposed systems outperform a single-layered P2P system in terms of the average number of messages to find target files. Especially the MISsystem improves by reducing the average number of messages by 48.9% while maintaining the same search accuracy.

VANET has several different characteristics from MANET such as high mobility of nodes and frequent change of node density and network topology. Due to these characteristics, the network topology based protocol, often used in MANET, can not be applied to VANET. In this paper, we propose an emergency warning message broadcast protocol using range based relay node selecting algorithm which determines the minimal waiting time spent by a given node before rebroadcasting the received warning message. Because the time is randomly calculated based on the distance between sender node and receiver node, a node chosen as a relay node is assured to have a minimal waiting time, even though it is not located at the border of radio transmission range. The proposed emergency warning message broadcast protocol has low network traffic because it does not need to exchange control messages for message broadcasting. In addition, it can reduce End-to-End delay under circumstances of low node density and short transmission range in VANET.

Mobile ad hoc networks(MANET) have recently attrarted a lot of attention in the research community as well as in industry. Although the previous research mainly focused on the various problems of MANET in data link and network layers, we consider, in this paper, how to efficiently support applications such as service discovery on top of MANET. Peer-to-Peer(P2P) overlay network can be adopted to service discovery mechanism because P2P and MANET share certain similarities, primarily the fact that both arc instances of self-organizing decentralized systems. Especially, distributed hash table(DHT) systems used for r2r overlay network can be effective in reducing the communication overhead in service discovery. However, since overlay network is independent of physical network topology and existing topology-aware mechanisms are based on the wired network, they are inefficient in MANET. We propose a proximity-based overlay network routing to overcome the inefficiency of routing in overlay network. In the proximity-based overlay network routing, each node collects information of physically close nodes by using one hop broadcast and routes messages to the logically closest node to destination. In a detailed ns-2 simulation study, we show that the proximity-based overlay network routing reduces the number of physical hops comparable to the flooding-based mechanism with low communication overhead. We also find that the proposed scheme works well in the mobile environment.
