Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) are infrastructure-less, autonomous, and stand-alone wireless networks with dynamic topologies. Recently, cluster-based ad hoc networks which enhance the security and efficiency of ad hoc networks are being actively researched. And routing protocols for cluster-based ad hoc networks are also studied. However, there are few studies about secure routing protocols in cluster-based ad hoc networks. In this paper, we propose secure routing protocol for cluster-based ad hoc networks. We use Diffie-Hellman key agreement, HMAC, and digital signature to support integrity of routing messages, and finally can perform secure routing.

Research about QoS in the ad-hoc networks for stable service of various applications has been needed as the expectation about the realization of the ad-hoc networks grows bigger. Existing researches about QoS in the ad-hoc network had the problems which can not guarantee the quantitative services or create the overhead. In this paper, we propose a novel algorithm of QFAN(QoS Framework for Ad-hoc Networks) the framework to resolve such problems and considered application of the proposed algorithm into the ad-hoc networks. Our model can guarantee the minimum bandwidth of the real-time traffic as minimized the overhead. And, disproportionate distribution of bandwidth problem can resolve by the proposed algorithm through the fair share between real-time traffic and best-effort traffic about available bandwidth. We design both the TiRe(Tiny Reservation) and the ADR(Adaptive Drop Rate) control algorithm to apply the proposed QFAN. Using simulation, we confirm fair share of available bandwidth between real-time traffic and best-effort traffic as guarantee minimum required bandwidth of real-time traffic.

In Mobile ad hoc networks, AODV is one of the famous on-demand routing protocol, which use the routing tables in the nodes if possible, or Route Discovery Process (RDP) is triggered to find a new route. However increasing the traffic of RDP causes dropping of the network performance in the large size of ad hoc networks. In this paper, we propose a novel routing protocol, named as AOZDV (Ad hoc On-demand Zone and Distance-Vector Routing), which enhances the AODV protocol with zone routing. AOZDV creates a Zone with neighbor nodes of the source/destination using traffic and power information, and utilizes Destination-Vector Table for internal routing in the Zone. We show by simulations that AOZDV can reduce the occurrence rate of route fail and RDP caused by route fail compared to existing routing protocols such as DSR and AODV.

Ad-hoc networks consist of a set of mobile hosts that communicate using wireless links, without the use of other supporting communication facilities (such as base stations, etc.). Therefore, the topology of an Ad-hoc network frequently changes due to the movement of mobile host, which nay lead to sudden packet loss. Recently, the large amount of research has focused on the routing protocols needed in such an environment. In this paper, TCP Reno, Sack, and Tahoe versions are analysed using DSR protocol which is the representative On-Demand routing protocol in Ad-hoc wireless network. As the result of this simulation, we know that TCP Reno relatively has higher throughput than that of Sack and Tahoe, and TCP Reno has more stable performance than that of TCP Tahoe and Sack, regardless of the speed of mobile node and the size of topology.

A hybrid ad-hoc network consists of a wired network and a mobile ad-hoc network connected by the internet gateway. To provide seamless service for internet user in hybrid ad-hoc network, an efficient internet gateway selection technique and a fast handover technique are needed. In this paper, we propose a seamless handoff technique for providing mobility of mobile hosts in hybrid ad-hoc networks. The proposed technique improves general handoff performance by an internet gateway re-registration algorithm for ad-hoc networks. Moreover, it reduces handoff processing time in the range of certain region by using mobility management agent (MMA) and also the packet loss when handoff occurs out of the range of MMA by tunneling technique.

무선 통신 기술의 발달과 함께 응급상황이나 전시와 같이 필요에 의해 임의의 장소에 형성되어 사용되어질 수 있는 네트워크의 필요성이 커지면서 Ad-hoc 네트워크에 관한 여러 가지 연구가 진행되고 있다. Ad-Hoc 네트워크에서는 기존의 유선 네트워크 망에서와는 달리휴대용 기기들만으로 네트워크 망이 형성이 되어있고 이때 휴대용 기기들은 대부분 배터리를 에너지원으로 사용한다. 무한대의 에너지를 갖고 있다고 볼 수 있었던 종전의 유선 네트워크에서와는 단리 배터리를 에너지원으로 사용하는 Ad-Hoc 네트워크에서는 효율적인 에너지 자원 관리가 중요한 이슈가 된다. 이에 관련된 연구의 하나로 Chang과 Tassiulas는 [1]에서 시스템 활동시간 증가에 초점을 두고 Ad-Hoc 네트워크상의 라우팅 경로를 재조정해 줌으로써 시스템의 활동 시간을 늘이는 라우팅 방법을 제안하였다. 그러나, 그들의 방법에서는 단지 데이터 전송에 사용되는 에너지의 양만을 고려한 모델로, 에어신호의 전송 에너지 사용은 고려하지 않았다. 본 논문에서는 Ad-hoc 네트워크의 라우팅에 데이터 전송 뿐만 아니라 제어신호의 전송 에너지 사용을 함께 고려한 라우팅 방법을 소개한다.

An Ad-Hoc networks is a set of wireless mobile host which forms temporary networks without any concentrated controls or any helps of standard support services. Mobile host' routers are operated by their mobile hosts without fixed routers, therefore, the original routing protocol algorithm are not effective. There are two major Protocols in Ad-Hoc Network. A Table-Driven algorithm and an On-Demand, but the latter is presented more effective. We try to compare and analyze the performances of each protocol's host in this thesis.

최근 무선 환경에서 기지국 없이 이동 노드들만으로도 서로 통신할 수 있는 ad­hoc 네트워크에 대한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 이러한 무선 ad­hoc 네트워크 환경에서는 라우팅 프로토콜이 중요한 역할을 하게 되는데 그 중에서 DSR(Dynamic Source Routing)은 무선 ad­hoc 네트워크 환경에 적합한 소스 라우팅을 기반으로 한 라우팅 프로토콜이다. 그러나 DSR은 데이터 전송 경로를 선택할 때 그 경로의 신뢰성을 고려하지 않는다. 이를 해결하기 위해 본 논문에서는 무선 ad­hoc 네트워크 환경에서 노드의 우선순위에 기반한 신뢰성 있는 경로 설정 기법을 제안한다. 이 기법은 경로 설정 후에 데이터를 송수신하는 과정에서. 선택된 경로의 링크가 유실될 확률을 줄여줌으로써 더욱 신뢰성 있는 데이터 송수신을 보장한다. 그러므로 이 기법은 무선 ad­hoc 네트워크 환경에서 데이터의 손실을 줄일 필요가 있는 멀티미디어 통신 등의 응용분야에 적용시킬 수 있다.

Ad-Hoc 네트워크는 기존에 설치된 유선망이나 기지국과 같은 기반 구조가 없는 환경에서 이동 호스트들로만 구성되는 임시적인 무선 이동 네트워치이다. Ad-Hoc 통신망은 이동단말기의 이동성 문제로 인하여 보안에서 심각한 문제를 가지고 있는데 아직까지 제안된 Ad-Hoc 통신망 프로토콜에는 충분한 보안에 관한 해결방안이 제시되지 못하고 있는 실정이다. Ad-Hoc 네트워크에서 안전한 라우팅 프로토콜을 설정하기 위해서는 호스트들 사이에 인증을 하여야 한다. 본 논문에서는 Ad-Hoc에서 안전한 라우팅 선정을 위한 인증 프로토콜을 제안한다. 제안한 프로토콜은 해쉬 함수와 디지털 서명을 통하여 노드들을 인증하여 라우팅 설정에 안전성을 제공한다.

Tactical Information Communication Network(TICN) uses both a wireless and wired network. To support mobility in battlefield environments, the application of Ad-hoc networking technology to its wireless communication has been examined. However, Ad-hoc network is faced to many security threats due to its intrinsic characteristics. Therefore, to apply the Ad-hoc networking technology to battlefield environments and TICN, an intensive study on security countermeasure must go side by side with the development of enabling technology. In this paper, we suggest an efficient key management scheme for TICN of which the Ad-hoc networking technology is applied.
