In this paper, we propose an Enhanced cross-layer Geographic Forwarding (EGF) protocol for wireless sensor networks (WSNs). EGF uses an optimal back-off time to make the packet forwarding decisions using only source and destination's location information and energy cost without information about neighbor nodes' location or the number of one hop neighbor nodes. EGF is also a cross-layer protocol by combining efficient asynchronous MAC and geographic routing protocol. The proposed protocol can find optimal next hop location quickly without broadcasting node's location update and with minimizing overhead. In our performance evaluation, EGF has better performance in terms of packet success ratio, energy efficiency and end-to-end delay in wireless sensor networks.

In this paper, we propose an efficient grid based routing scheme using the location information in order to reduce the routing cost in mobile ad-hoc networks. In our proposed scheme, all nodes can be a candidate to forward messages to the specified destination node and reduce the management cost of head nodes because they do not exist. The intermediate nodes determine the next hop relaying messages on the basis of location relations between a node and a grid zone. The proposed scheme explores the routing path considering the direction of a node using the coordinate of a grid zone and neighbor node information. It also maintains the routing path considering connectivities among the nodes. In order to show the superiority of the proposed routing scheme, we compare it with the existing grid based routing scheme in terms of the overhead of message, the success rate of transmission.

In this paper we consider methods for selecting the next tracing node that take advantage of the history of traced positions during the packet-tracing. In the meantime, the proposed routing strategy that counters the tracing is to design the routing path is such a way that nodes on it are not close to the nodes whose location privacy is needed and zigzag or back-and-forth movements hardly take place. In simulations, the ratios of successful tracing were largely improved. It was shown that our routing scheme allows more data packets to be delivered to the destination while, enticing the tracer to move more long distances in the presence of multiple assets.

이동 Ad Hoc 네트워크(MANET)에서 많은 영역에 걸쳐 다양한 라우팅 프로토콜들이 제안되어 왔다. 다중전송률은 현재 많은 무선 랜 카드에 의해 지원되고 있고, 그 효과에 관한 라우팅 프로토콜 알고리즘들이 연구되고 있다. 다중전송률에서의 high-rate을 이용한 데이터 전송은 일정한 시간 내에 더 많은 데이터를 전송할 수 있기 때문에 높은 throughput을 기대 할 수 있다. 그러나 high-rate을 이용한 데이터 전송의 경우 전송이 가능한 거리가 짧아져 목적노드까지 도달하는 데에 더 많은 홉을 거쳐야 한다. 그로 인해 패킷을 전달하는데 걸리는 시간이 늘어나 전교 네트워크의 성능을 저하시킬 수도 있다. 본 논문에서는 노드들의 이동으로 인한 네트워크의 토폴로지 변화나 채널의 상태에 따라 어떤 전송 속도로 데이터를 전송할 것인가를 결정하기 위해 다중전송률을 고려한 위치 정보 기반의 라우팅 프로토콜을 제안한다.

Conventional routing protocols proposed for wireless sensor networks (WSNs) cannot fully accommodate the characteristics of WSNs. In particular, although it is possible to largely obtain benefits in the solution of energy consumption and global identification problems through applying position information, there are few protocols that actively apply such position information. In the case of geographical and energy aware routing (GEAR) that is a typical algorithm, which uses position information, it does not fully represent the characteristics of WSNs because it is limited to forward query messages and assumed as fixed network environments. The routing protocols proposed in this paper defines the direction of data, which is routed based on the position information of individual and target nodes, in which each node configures its next hop based on this direction and routes signals. Because it performs data-centric routing using position information, it does not require certain global identifications in order to verify individual nodes and is able to avoid unnecessary energy consumption due to the forwarding of packets by defining its direction.

In order for location information to deliver the collected information, it needs Sensor Nodes in an environment of Sensor Network. Each sensor sends data to a base station through the process of routing in a wireless sensor network environment. Therefore, Offering accurate location information is very important in a wireless sensor network environment. Most of existed routing methods save all the informations of nodes at the area of 1-hop. In order to save these informations, unnecessary wasted energy and traffics are generated. Routing Protocol proposed in this paper doesn't save node's location information, and doesn't exchange any periodic location information to reduce wasted energy. It includes transmission range of source nodes and nodes with the location information, however it doesn't include any nodes' routing near 1-hope distance.

Geocast 기법은 특정지역의 노드 집합을 멀티캐스트 그룹으로 정하고 멀티캐스트 서비스를 진행한다. 모바일 애드 혹 네트워크(MANET)에서는 geocast를 통해 멀티캐스트 서비스를 세션 정보를 브로드캐스트 할 수 있고 geocast 서비스 구역인 GR(Geocast Region)은 라우팅 경로 테이블을 유지함으로써 멀티캐스트 서비스 가입 및 데이터 전송을 위한 전달 기능을 수행한다. 하지만 이동 노드의 현재 위치에 상관없이 멀티캐스트 서비스에 가입하는 모든 노드들이 GR을 경유하는 경로를 이용하기 때문에 평균 홉 수의 증가와 데이터 전송 지연 등 문제를 야기하게 된다. 이런 문제를 해결하고자 본 논문에서는 이동성으로 인한 위치정보를 고려한 geocast 기반의 멀티캐스트 라우팅 최적화 기법을 제안하였고 노드 수에 따른 평균 홉 수에 대한 분석을 통해 제안한 최적화 기법이 네트워크 평균 홉 수를 줄일 수 있음을 증명하였다.

We proposed the energy-efficient routing algorithm ALPS (Ad hoc network Localized Positioning System) algorithm that is range-free based on the distance information. The routing coordinate method of ALPS algorithm consists of hierarchical cluster routing that provides immediately relative coordinate location using RSSI(Received Signal Strength Indication) information. Existing conventional DV-hop algorithm also to manage based on normalized the range free method, the proposed hierarchical cluster routing algorithm simulation results show more optimized energy consumption sustainable path routing technique to improve the network management.

본 논문은 에드 혹 네트워크(Ad hoc network)에서 각 노드는 베터리 기반의 한정된 에너지로 동작 하기 때문에 에너지 효율을 높이기 위한 다양한 라우팅 알고리즘이 연구되고 있다. 에드 혹 네트워크는 많은 수의 노드들이 거리 등의 상호 속성 정보에 의한 노드의 관리 기법에 따라 노드의 에너지를 관리해야 한다. 또한 주어진 망에서 관리 노드 또는 중계 노드 등의 동작 불가능한상태가 되었을 경우 라우팅 경로가 끊어짐으로서 통신이 불가능한 상태가 되는 문제점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 트리망에서 중계 노드로 사용되는 클러스터 헤드 노드가 동작 불가능한 상태가 되었을 경우, 노드의 위치정보를 이용하여 새로운 헤드 노드를 선출하는 ECOPS(Energy conserving Optimal Path Schedule) 알고리즘을 제안 하였다. 특히 제한된 ECOPS 알고리즘을 이용함으로 노드에 대한 라이프타임을 향상 시키고 전체 라우팅 경로가 오랜 시간 동안 지속되는 결과를 보여 주었다.

Routing technique of wireless sensor network that is presented to improve effectiveness of consumption in energy at the previous study is existing in various ways, however for routing, its own location data and nodes' location data close to with 1-hop distance should be kept. And it uses multi-hop transmission method that transmits data to BS node via several nodes. This technique makes electronic consumption of sensor node and entire network's energy consumption so that it makes effective energy management problem. Therefore, this paper suggests location based 1-hop routing technique of BS node that satisfies distance $d{\pm}{\alpha}$ with source node using RSSI and radio wave range of sensor node.
