In Vehicle Safety Communication (VSC), noted as a representative application of VANET technologies, emergency warning messages (EWM) are broadcast over vehicles in response to an emergency situation. However, as the number of vehicles increases, the so-called Broadcast Storm Problem often occurs due to a huge number of redundant EWM transmitted. Though many approaches in the literature have been proposed to solve the problem, most of them require the preliminary phase for setting up or refreshing neighbor relationship through exchanging beacon messages with nearby vehicles, thereby further increasing the traffic load. In this paper, we propose Longest Leaping Relay (LLR) scheme which can efficiently solve the Broadcast Storm Problem without any preliminary phase for setting up neighbor relationship. Through computer simulations, we compared the performance of the proposed scheme with competitive schemes and verified the proposed scheme outperforms the existing schemes.

In mobile ad hoc networks(MANETs), each node rebroadcast received route request packets for route discovery. Flooding from large number of nodes induces the broadcast storm problem which causes severe degradation in network performance due to redundant retransmission, collision and contention. This paper presents a node status algorithm based on probabilistic scheme to alleviate the broadcast storm problem for wireless ad hoc networks.

In this paper, we introduce an FARNS (Flooding algorithm with Adaptive Retransmission Nodes Selection). It is an efficient cross layer-based flooding technique to solve broadcast storm problem that is produced by simple flooding of nodes in wireless sensor network. FARNS can decrease waste of unnecessary energy by preventing retransmission action of whole network node by deciding retransmission candidate nodes that are selected by identification in MAC and distance with neighborhood node through received signal strength information in PHY. In simulation part, we show the results that FARNS has excellent performance than the other flooding schemes in terms of broadcast forwarding ratio, broadcast delivery ratio, number of redundancy packets and overhead. And FARNS can adjust of node ratio for retransmission operation, it can solve broadcast storm problem as well as meet the requirements of various network environments.

There are several high technologies applied to the driving cars such as self-driving car and connected car for safe and convenient driving. VANET provides useful information such as route selection and gas price by communicating nearby cars and RSUs. VANET prefers CCN rather than traditional TCP/IP stack because CCN offers inherent multicast communication for sharing traffic information as well as traditional unicast. When all participating node rebroadcasts the Interest packets in a Vehicular CCN, the network may suffer from Broadcast Storm Problem. In order to mitigate the effect of the problem and to improve the Data packet transmission, not all but some selected nodes have to rebroadcast the packet. This paper simulates car movements using SUMO and evaluates data transmission performance using ns-3. According to the simulation results, when some selected nodes rebroadcast the Interest packets, the transmission performance improves 10% to 25% depending on the number of requesting nodes.

Mobile Ad hoc network은 stationary infrastructure의 도움 없이 이동 노드들이 필요 시 multi-hop wireless links network 형태를 구성하여 통신이 이루어지게 하는 network이다. 따라서 효율적인 라우팅 프로토콜의 개발이 중요한 issue인데 최근에는 routing overhead가 적은 on-demand 프로토콜이 주목을 받고 있다. On-demand 프로토콜은 새로운 route을 구성하기 위해서 query packet을 broadcasting하게 되는데, 특히 노드들의 mobility가 많은 mobile ad hoc network(MANET)의 경우에는 더욱더 자주 발생하게 되는데, blind broadcasting은 neighbor 노드들 간의 radio transmission region overlap에 의해 redundancy, contention, collision 같은 broadcast storm 문제를 발생시키게 된다. 본 논문은 on-demand 프로토콜의 broadcast storm 문제를 해결하기 위해 Neighbor Topology을 고려 한 Dynamic Adaptation Query flooding scheme을 제시한다. 또한 Dynamic Adaptive Query flooding scheme은 broadcast storm 문제 해결뿐만 아니라 network의 congestion을 감소시켜 data packet의 성능 향상에도 기여 할 것이다.

Recently USN has been widely used and a lot of research issues have been focused on network configuration. The SOS system is one of the USN applications. The SOS system inherently uses broadcasting due to its emergency. However, a naive broadcasting may cause a significant problem called broadcasting storm. This paper introduces a new trust concept into USN and proposes a new broadcasting algorithm solving the broadcast storm problem.

The flooding is the simplest and effective way to disseminate a packet to all nodes in a wireless sensor network (WSN). However, basic flooding makes all nodes transmit the packet at least once, resulting in the broadcast storm problem in a serious case, in turn network resources become severely wasted. Particularly, power is one of the most valuable resources of WSNs as nodes are powered by battery, then the waste of energy by the basic flooding lessens the lifetime of WSNs. In order to solve the broadcast storm problem, this paper proposes a dynamic probabilistic flooding that utilizes the neighbor information like the number of child and sibling nodes. Simulation results show that the proposed method achieves a higher packet delivery ratio with the similar number of duplicate packets as compared to existing schemes.

Most Vehicular Ad hoc Network (VANET) applications rely heavily on broadcast transmission of traffic related information to all reachable nodes within a certain geographical area. Among various broadcast approaches, flooding is the first broadcasting technique. Each node rebroadcasts the received message exactly once, which results in broadcast storm problems. Some mechanisms have been proposed to improve flooding in Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANET), but they are not effective for VANET and only a few studies have addressed this issue. We propose two distance-based and timer-based broadcast suppression techniques: 15P(15percent) and slotted 15P. In the first (distance based) scheme, node's transmission range is divided into three ranges (80%,15%and5%). Only nodes within 15% range will rebroadcast received packet. Specific packet retransmission range (15%) is introduced to reduce the number of messages reforwarding nodes that will mitigate the broadcaststorm. In the second (timer-based) scheme, waiting time allocation for nodes within 15% range isused to significantly reduce the broadcaststorm. The proposed schemes are distributed and reliedon GPS information and do not requireany other prior knowledge about network topology. To analyze the performance of proposed schemes, statistics such as link load and the number of retransmitted nodes are presented. Our simulation results show that the proposed schemes can significantly reduce link load at high node densities up to 90 percent compared to a simple broadcast flooding technique.

The message propagation between vehicles must be efficiently performed to quickly transmit information between vehicles in vehicle ad hoc networks (VANETs). Broadcasting can be the most effective solution for propagating these messages. However, broadcasting can cause broadcast storm problems, which can reduce the performance of the overall network. Therefore, rapid information delivery in VANET requires a method that can propagate messages quickly without causing the broadcast storm problems. This paper proposes a lightweight and opportunistic broadcast (LOB) protocol that leverages the features of opportunistic routing to propagate messages quickly while minimizing the load on the network in VANETs where the network topology changes frequently. LOB does not require any routing information like greedy forwarding scheme, and neighboring nodes at the farthest distance within the range of transmission nodes are likely to be selected as forwarding nodes, and multiple forwarding candidate nodes like opportunistic routing scheme can increase packet transmission rates. Simulation results using ns-2 showed that LOB outperformed existing broadcast protocols in terms of packet rate and packet delay.

In ad hoc networks, many applications use the broadcast service that is elementary operation to support various important functions such as route discovery procedure. This paper presents several adaptive probabilistic broadcast schemes base on local information to alleviate the broadcast storm problem for wireless ad hoc network. Our schemes dynamically determine the rebroadcast probability at each node based on the neighbor information within two-hop span. Simulation results are presented, which show our schemes have a better performance over the deterministic flooding approach.
