One of the main goals of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is to utilize the energy of sensor nodes effectively and maximize the network lifetime. Thus, this paper proposed a routing protocol for WSNs based on virtual force disturbing mobile Sink node (VFMSR). According to the number of sensor nodes in the cluster, the average energy and the centroid factor of the cluster, a new cluster head (CH) election fitness function was designed. At the same time, a hexagonal fixed-point moving trajectory model with the best radius was constructed, and the virtual force was introduced to interfere with it, so as to avoid the frequent propagation of sink node position information, and reduce the energy consumption of CH. Combined with the improved ant colony algorithm (ACA), the shortest transmission path to Sink node was constructed to reduce the energy consumption of long-distance data transmission of CHs. The simulation results showed that, compared with LEACH, EIP-LEACH, ANT-LEACH and MECA protocols, VFMSR protocol was superior to the existing routing protocols in terms of network energy consumption and network lifetime, and compared with LEACH protocol, the network lifetime was increased by more than three times.

According to the user requirements for continuous and real-time multimedia information, the concept of Quality of Service (QoS) has emerged as a main issue in mobile ad-hoc networks. QoS routing is to find the route that meets the QoS requirements of the users. In this paper, we propose a routing protocol that is based on AODV over TDMA, one of the typical routing protocols for mobile ad-hoc networks, by making a bandwidth reservation for QoS guarantee. While the existing schemes calculate the maximum available bandwidth for each candidate path, our scheme is to check only if the bandwidth of a given path satisfies the end-to-end QoS requirement and then to make a reservation by allocating time slots efficiently in the wireless environment. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed QoS routing protocol, some simulations are carried out in the ad-hoc environment.

We propose the PAD (Power Aware Data-centric Routing Protocol), which finds minimum energy routes and prolongs network life-time, for the data-centric sensor networks. Firstly, the PAD discovers the minimum energy Property graph by removing redundant communication links. The proposed a1gorithm to find the minimum energy property graph is faster, simpler and easier to implement than existing aIgorithms. Secondly, the PAD runs the DDBF (Distributed Data-centric Bellman-Ford Algorithm) to determine routing paths between a base node and all sensor nodes. The DDBF selves the drawbacks of the distributed bellman-ford algorithm, i.e. slow convergence and a possible cyclic routing path. Since the PAD is a fully distributed algorithm with low overhead, it can be used in various kinds of resource limited sensor network applications.

M2M communication is considered as a key enabling technology to monitor the status of objects, vehicles, humans through auto-configuring wireless networks. In M2M network, there are active research activities to enhance the reliability on data while being collected from wireless sensor network. The reliability issue becomes more important as wireless sensor networks carry multimedia data, which is delay sensitive. The interference caused by the adjacent neighbor sensor nodes is a major factor in network performance degradation, which becomes more severe in multi-hop routing environment. In this paper, we propose inerfernce-free multipath routing protocol for M2M wireless network for enhancement of packet delay performance. The simulation results show that the proposed routing algorithm outperforms the existing routing protocols in terms of packet delay and throughput.

Mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) experience frequent link disconnections due to non-uniform node distribution and mobility. Thus, end-to-end path establishment-based routing protocols cause frequent transmission failures in MANETs, resulting in heavy control messages for path reestablishment. While location-based MANET routing protocols, such as Greedy Perimeter Stateless Routing (GPSR), use location information to forward messages in a hop-by-hop routing fashion without an end-to-end path establishment procedure, such protocols encounter communication void problems when message forwarding to the next hop fails due to the absence of a relay node. Therefore, to solve this problem, this paper proposes a Delay Tolerant-GPSR (DT-GPSR) protocol, which combines Delay Tolerant Networking (DTN) technology with the GPSR protocol. The performance of DT-GPSR is compared with the performances of the original GPSR and PRoPHET routing protocols through simulation using NS-2. The simulation results confirm that DT-GPSR outperforms GPSR and PRoPHET in terms of the message delivery ratio and message delivery delay.

Wireless sensor networks are composed of a lot of sensor nodes and they are used to monitor environments. Since many studies on wireless sensor networks have considered a stationary sink node, they cannot provide fully ubiquitous applications based on a mobile sink node. In those applications, routing paths for a mobile sink node should be updated while a sink node moves in order to deliver sensor data without data loss. In this paper, we propose a method to continuously update routing paths for a mobile sink node which can be extended on hierarchical multi-hop routing protocols in wireless sensor networks. The efficiency of the proposed scheme has been validated through comparing existing method using a location based routing protocol by extensive computer simulation.

In this paper, we evaluate and compare performance between position-based and non-position-based routing protocols in a vehicular ad-hoc network. The protocols evaluated in this paper for many performance evaluation aspects are a position-based routing protocol, GPSR (Greedy Perimeter Stateless Routing), and the non-position-based such as AODV (Ad-hoc On-Demand Distance Vector) and DSR (Dynamic Source Routing) protocols. The three protocol characteristics such as Packet Delivery Ratio, Latency of first packet per connection, and Average number of hops depending on distance are compared and evaluated. As the result of simulation, the AODV performed better than the DSR. However, due to the high mobility characteristic of a vehicular ad-hoc network, GPSR, the position-based routing performs better than the non-position-based routing protocols such as AODV and DSR in a vehicular ad-hoc network environment.

Ad-hoc 네트워크에서의 라우팅 프로토콜은 현재 사용중인 경로가 혼잡하다 하더라도 네트워크 토폴로지가 변하기 이전에는 새로운 경로를 설정하지 못하므로, 노드의 이동성이 낮은 환경에서는 트래픽의 집중 현상이 심화된다. 이동 기기들은 그 성능과 배터리에 한계가 있기 때문에 일부 소수 노드들에게 트래픽 집중되는 경우 다른 노드들에 대한 데이터 중계 서비스를 제공하는데 자신의 자원 대부분을 낭비하도록 강요받게 된다. 따라서 본 논문에서 혼잡 상태의 노드는 더 이상의 데이터 패킷 중계를 포기하고 이를 해당 소스에게 알림으로써 소스가 새로운 우회경로를 설정하도록 하여 트래픽의 집중 현상을 완화시키는 새로운 프로토콜인 SLAP(Simple Load-balanced Ad-hoc routing Protocol)을 제안한다.

ad-hoc 망에서 라우팅 프로토콜의 부하균등(load balancing)은 이동성과 전송 지연사이의 trade-off로 인하여 성능 관점에서 중요한 이슈가 되어왔다. 부하균등을 고려한 SLAP(Simple Load-balancing Ad-hoc routing Protocol)이 제안되었으나 혼잡이 발생하거나 망의 토폴로지가 변화하였을 때 유연하게 대처하지 못한다. 본 논문에서는 ad-hoc 망에서 트래픽 혼잡 제어와 망의 이동성에 적응하기 위하여 동적인 임계치를 사용하는 부하균등 라우팅 프로토콜을 제안하였다. 제안된 프로토콜은 성능은 GloMoSim으로 시뮬레이션을 수행하여 AODV, DSR, SLAP과 지연, 패킷 전송률 등을 비교하여 평가하였다.
