The current implementation of TCP for the Internet is not efficient when used for Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANENTs). This is because TCP assumes that all packet losses are caused by congestion, whereas transmission errors are a main reason for packet losses in wireless networks. To remedy this situation and increase performance, we propose an end-to-end method of using propagation delays and the differences between propagation delays to distinguish the causes for packet losses. The proposed method has two characteristics: Firstly, it is energy-efficient because this solution is only initiated when a packet loss is detected. Secondly, our approach considers only the one way propagation delay and is more accurate in determining causes for packet losses than existing methods which consider round trip time. Petri net models of the proposed TCP and of the standard TCP have been built and simulations have been performed on them. Our simulation results show that the proposed approach increases throughput and reduces propagation delay compared with standard TCP.

Underwater wireless communication systems can be useful for underwater environment observation, catastrophe prevention, ocean resources exploration, ocean organism research, vessel sinking exploration, and so on. However, unlike terrestrial wireless communication, underwater wireless communication should consider factors such as long propagation delay, limited transmission capacity, high bit-error rate due to potential loss in power, ambient noise, man-made noise, multi-path, etc., because of the inherent characteristics of water. Thus, in this paper, we propose a suitable media access control(MAC) protocol that applies a combination of the ALOHA MAC protocol and the CSMA/CA MAC protocol to underwater environment. We further propose a mathematical analysis model to evaluate performance. We also verify performance improvement in the proposed scheme in comparison with existing MAC protocols.

A Vehicular Ad-Hoc Network (VANET) is form of the Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) to provide temporary communication among vehicles via wireless links. In VANET, the vehicle is one of the nodes in networks and communicates with each other. However, the wireless links disconnect very frequently, because vehicles have mobility and move freely. The reason why data accessibility degrades is that disconnection occurs frequently. To improve data accessibility, data replica allocation methods that made group to allocate data replica have proposed in MANET. However, those are not suitable because it is difficult to maintain stable links among the nodes moving fast by centralized group. In this paper, we proposed TBG (Tree Based Grouping) to allocate data replica with the distributed grouping method. Each node has own TBG and allocates data replica based on stability of links to improve data accessibility. The experiment demonstrates that the proposed method outperforms traditional methods in term of data accessibility.

Mobile Ad hoc Network(MANET) consists of a node that has mobility. In MANET, the node has routing, the node builds a network of their own, no dependent infrastructure. Topology are exchanged due to node mobility in MANET. For reducing the change of topology, hierarchical network algorithm has been investigated. In hierarchical network, cluster member node communicates through cluster head node. When the load-balancing of cluster head node is exceed, assigned cluster member node can't communicate with base station. To solve this problem, we proposed Load Tolerance algorithm. The proposed algorithm, when cluster member node can't send a message by cluster head node that exceed load-balancing, then the cluster member node sends a message by selected load tolerance node. Through a simulation, the proposed algorithm improves packet delivery ratio in cluster routing.

In the mobile Ad hoc Network(MANET), improving technique for management and control of topology is recognized as an important part of the next generation network. In this paper, we proposed an efficient node life time management of ATICC(Adaptive Time Interval Clustering Control) in Ad-hoc Networks. Ad-hoc Network is a self-configuration network or wireless multi-hop network based on inference topology. This is a method of path routing management node for increasing the network life time through the periodical route alternation. The proposed ATICC algorithm is time interval control technique depended on the use of the battery energy while node management considering the attribute of node and network routing. This can reduce the network traffic of nodes consume energy cost effectively. As a result, it could be improving the network life time by using timing control method in ad-hoc networks.

Data networks at sea will be overlapped networks with not only traditional carriers such as RF, satellites but also BWA like wireless LAN, WiBro, and WCDMA in near future. In this paper, an overlapped MANET model for data networks at sea, and a routing protocol (OMH-MW) selecting optimal transmission medium for each hop in routes are proposed. OMH-MW measures the optimality of each medium regarding the transmission characteristics of each application and those of the medium in together. The most suitable medium to each link is selected as the link in routes. Performances are compared with those of the MWR (Max-Win based Routing protocol searching optimal routes with only one medium).

In this paper, we propose a context-awareness routing algorithm DDV (Dynamic Direction Vector)-hop algorithm in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks. The existing algorithm in MANET, it has a vulnerability that the dynamic network topology and the absence of network expandability of mobility of nodes. The proposed algorithm performs cluster formation using a range of direction and threshold of velocity for the base-station, we calculate the exchange of the cluster head node probability using the direction and velocity for maintaining cluster formation. The DDV algorithm forms a cluster based on the cluster head node. As a result of simulation, our scheme could maintain the proper number of cluster and cluster members regardless of topology changes.

A MANET is an autonomous, infrastructureless system that consists of mobile nodes. In MANET, on-demand routing protocols are usually used because network topology changes frequently. The current approach in case of broken routes is to flag an error and re-initiate route discovery either at the source or at the intermediate node. Repairing these broken links is a costly affair in terms of routing overhead and delay involved. Therefore, this paper propose a NAODV(Neighbor-aware AODV) protocol that stands on the basis of an AODV. It sets up the route rapidly if it operates for setting the route directly by using sequence number of neighbor nodes without re-search the route when the route to destination node is broken. Also, it reduces loss of packets. We use NS-2 for the computer simulation and validate that the proposed scheme is better than general AODV in terms of packet delivery ratio and average end-to-end delay. Also, when the proposed protocol is applied to the large ad-hoc network with multiple nodes, the performance is more efficient.
