A clustering problem is one of the organizational problems to improve the network lifetime and scalability in wireless ad-hoc networks. This problem is a difficult combinatorial optimization problem associated with the design and operation of these networks. In this paper, we propose an efficient clustering algorithm to maximize the network lifetime and consider scalability in wireless ad-hoc networks. The clustering problem is known to be NP-hard. We thus solve the problem by using optimization approaches that are able to efficiently obtain high quality solutions within a reasonable time for a large size network. The proposed algorithm selects clusterheads and configures clusters by considering both nodes' power and the clustering cost. We evaluate this performance through some experiments in terms of nodes' transmission energy. Simulation results indicate that the proposed algorithm performs much better than the existing algorithms.

The Wireless Mesh Network uses a wireless communication technology with transmission rates similar to that of a cable, which is used as a backbone network. The topology structure is in a Mesh form which resembles an Ad-hoc network, however a metric is needed in order to set the channel and channel methods since the operation intentions and interior motions are different. This thesis proposes a metric(ETR : Expected Transmission Rate) that sets the channel with physical link performance and multi hop transmission capabilities. This metric will also be based on multi channel creation methods and Hop-by-hop routing techniques for an effective multi hop transmission with no loops.

Mobile IP has been designed to have mobile host users move from place to plate without changing their IP address. Ad-hoc network is a provisional network whose mobile host users construct networks by themselves without any assistance of infra structure network, using wireless interface. In this paper we discuss the scheme with which Ad-hoc network users ran access the Internet freely, using mobile IP protocol, and Ad-hot networks are access networks in the spotlight. In this paper we propose algorithm that support enhanced mobility between two Ad-hoc networks applying mobile IP at Ad-hoc routing protocol.

Ad-hoc networks are temporary wireless systems composed of mobile nodes without any fixed infrastructure. The life time of each node in the ad-hoc network significantly affects the life time of whole ad-hoc network. A node which drained out its battery may incur the partition of whole network in some network topology The life time of each node depends on the battery capacity of each node. Therefore if all mobile nodes in the network live evenly long, the life time of the network will be longer. In this paper, we propose Power-Aware Dynamic Source Routing (PADSR) which selects the best path to make the life time of the network be longer. In PADSR, when a source node finds a path to the destination node, it selects the best path that makes nodes in the network live evenly long. To find the best path, PADSR considers the consumption of transmission energy and residual battery capacity of nodes upon the path. Consequently the network lives longer if we use PADSR.

In this paper, the RFID / USN-based ad-hoc network structure is presented for efficient operation of a container terminal yard. Communication between fixed or mobile devices in the container terminal yard is accomplished through the ad-hoc node, to collect the status information of a container in real time. Any outside shipper of the container as well as central server allows to share the status information of a container through ad-hoc communication. In addition, to predict the maximum wireless transmission range of nodes by RFID tag position in the yard, LAODV (Location based AODV) routing protocol is proposed. The validity is proved by performance evaluation via computer simulation.

In this paper, we propose an entropy-based routing protocol to effectively support both stable route construction and route lifetime in Mobile Ad-hoc Wireless Sensor Networks (MAWSN). The basic idea and feature of the proposed routing protocol are as follows. First, we construct the stable routing routes based on entropy concept using mobility of mobile nodes. Second, we consider a realistic approach, in the points of view of the MAWSN, based on mobile sensor nodes as well as fixed sensor nodes in sensor fields while the conventional research for sensor networks focus on mainly fixed sensor nodes. The performance evaluation of the proposed routing protocol is performed via simulation using OPNET(Optimized Network Engineering Tool) and analysis. The results of the performance evaluation show that the proposed routing protocol can efficiently support both the construction of stable route and route lifetime in mobile ad-hoc wireless networks.

Network Coding(NC) is a new paradigm for network communication. In network coding, intermediate nodes create new packets by algebraically combining ingress packets and send it to its neighbor node by broadcast manner. Network Coding has rapidly emerged as a major research area in information theory due to its wide applicability to communication through real networks. Network coding is expected to improve throughput and channel efficiency in the wireless multi-hop network. Prior researches have been carried out to employ network coding to wireless ad-hoc network. In our study, intermediate nodes identify one-hop bidirectional flows for network coding decision. We expect that the proposed scheme shall improve decoding success rate of network coded packet. From the simulation, the proposed network coding scheme achieved better performance in terms of coding gain and packet delivery rate than traditional network coding scheme.

A novel approach for electrocardiogram (ECG) analysis within a functional sensor node has been developed and evaluated. The main aim is to reduce data collision, traffic overload and power consumption in healthcare applications of wireless sensor networks(WSN). The sensor node attached on the patient's body surface around the heart can perform ECG analysis based on a QRS detection algorithm to detect abnormal condition of the patient. Data transfer is activated only after detected abnormality in the ECG. This system can reduce packet loss during transmission by reducing traffic overload. In addition, it saves power supply energy leading to more reliable, cheap and user-friendly operation in the WSN for ubiquitous health monitoring.

Ad Hoc network is a special wireless network, mainly because the nodes are no control center, the topology is flexible, and the networking could be established quickly, which results the transmission stability is lower than other types of networks. In order to guarantee the transmission of data packets in the network effectively, an improved Queue Ad Hoc On-demand Distance Vector Routing protocol (Q-AODV) for node detection by using blockchain technology is proposed. In the route search process. Firstly, according to the node's daily communication record the cluster is formed by the source node using the smart contract and gradually extends to the path detection. Then the best optional path nodes are chained in the form of Merkle tree. Finally, the best path is chosen on the blockchain. Simulation experiments show that the stability of Q-AODV protocol is higher than the AODV protocol or the Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) protocol.

본 논문에서는 ad-hoc wireless network에서 상호간의 사전지식 없이 상대편을 authenticate하는 프로토콜을 제시한다. 기존에 Dirk Balfanz et al에 의해 제시된 변형된interactive Guy Fawkes protocol은 해쉬함수의, 전달하고자 하는 메시지와 그 authenticator의 해쉬값을 보내고, 다음 단계에서 그 원본을 밝히는 원리를 이용한 것으로, PKI 없이 해쉬함수 만으로 상호인증과 메시지의 무결성을 보장함으로써 전반적인 ID 체계와 public key encryption, decryption 연산에 대한 부담을 덜었다. 하지만, 이것은 여전히 eavesdropping같은 passive attack에 노출되어 있다[1]. 본 논문에서는 zero-knowledge 기반의 프로토콜을 이용하여 상호 정보를 교환할 수 없는 환경에서도 안전하게 상호 authentication을 가능하게 하는 방법을 제시한다.
