This paper proposes a load balanced reliable routing protocol called LBR (Load Balanced Reliable routing) in wireless networks. The LBR protocol transmits messages through a reliable path considering the balancing of the traffic load. Recently, the authors have proposed a multipath-based reliable routing protocol called MRFR, which is an appealing protocol for fault tolerant reliable data transmission. However, However, MRFR has no concern with the problem of load balancing, which results in increasing congestion and consuming high energy at some network nodes. As a result, the problem affects negatively the performance of the network. Taking account of load balancing as a route selection criteria can avoid routing through the congested nodes and allows to find better routes. In this paper, we extend MRFR by considering load balancing in the route discovery process of reliable communication. The simulation results showed that the proposed protocol outperforms AODV in terms of end-to-end delay, packet delivery radio, and average jitter. Compared to MRFR, the LBR protocol has the same packet delivery ratio, and obtains a better efficiency of load balancing.

We propose a new multipath-based reliable routing protocol on MANETs, Multipath-based Reliable routing protocol with Fast-Recovery of failures (MRFR). For reliable message transmission, MRFR tries to find the most reliable path between a source and a destination considering the end-to-end packet reception reliability of the routes. The established path consists of a primary path that is used to transmit messages, and the secondary paths that are used to recover the path when detecting failures on the primary path. After establishing the path, the source transmits messages through the primary path. If a node detects a link failure during message transmission, it can recover the path locally by switching from the primary to the secondary path. By allowing the intermediate nodes to locally recover the route failure, the proposed protocol can handle the dynamic topological change of the MANETs efficiently. The simulation result using the QualNet simulator shows that the MRFR protocol performs better than other protocols in terms of the end-to-end message delivery ratio and fault-tolerance capability.

VANET에서는 차량 안전 관련 정보가 차량들 간에 안정적으로 전달될 수 있도록 해주는 라우팅 프로토콜이 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 도시기반의 VANET 환경에서 차량 간의 빠르고 안정적인 통신을 위하여 차량 밀도 정보를 이용한 라우팅 기법을 제안한다. 제안 기법에서 각 차량은 비콘 메시지와 도로 정보을 이용해서 도로의 차량 밀도를 계산한다. 차량들은 이 정보를 이용해서 패킷을 전송할 안정적인 경로를 설정한다. NS-2 시뮬레이션을 통해 제안 기법과 GPSR의 성능을 비교했으며, 그 결과 제안 기법이 패킷 전송 성공률 측면에서 우수한 성능을 보임을 알 수 있었다.

In this paper, we have proposed an ad-hoc routing protocol named "RRMR (Reliable and Resilient Multipath Routing)" that is expanded from AODV to acquire multiple path at one time. This protocol needs less overhead to configure data routing paths and the paths are maintained to transmit data stably. To get these advantages, RRMR protocol is constructed by expanding from multipath acquiring and maintaining method based on distance vector method and hop-by-hop routing of AODV.

In industrial distributed control systems, sensors collect data from the physical environment periodically and transmit them to the actuators, which process the control operations based on the received data. For the effective operation of the control systems, the data transmitted by the sensors has to be delivered to the actuators reliably within the deadline, and if the message reception rate of the actuators becomes lower than a threshold, then the performance of the control systems drops greatly. This paper suggests a message routing protocol to transmit periodic messages reliably in a distributed control system based on wireless sensor networks. For reliable message transmission, the proposed protocol selects a routing path whose end-to-end message reception rate is the highest before transmitting data messages. The proposed protocol has the capability of maintaining a target message reception rate for each flow. To maintain the required target reception rate, each destination monitors the actual message reception rate periodically and transmits a feedback message to the source if it drops below the target reception rate. On receiving the feedback message, the source tries to find a new path which can satisfy the target rate. The performance of the proposed protocol has been evaluated using simulation and compared with other protocols in terms of the message reception rate, the message delay and delay jitter, and so on. The simulation results show that the proposed protocol has a higher message reception rate and comparable message delay and delay jitter to other protocols. The simulation results also show that the proposed protocol has an ability to adapt well to the dynamic network traffic change.

Multipath routing technique is recognized as one of the effective approaches to improve the reliability of data forwarding. However, the traditional multipath routing focuses only on how many paths are needed to ensure a desired reliability. For this purpose, the protocols construct additional paths and thus cause significant energy consumption. These problems have motivated the study for the energy-efficient and reliable data forwarding. Thus, this paper proposes an energy-efficient concurrent multipath routing protocol with a small number of paths based on interaction between paths. The interaction between paths helps to reinforce the multipath reliability by making efficient use of resources. The protocol selects several nodes located in the radio overlapped area between a pair of paths as bridge nodes for the path-interaction. In order to operate the bridge node efficiently, when the transmission failure has detected by overhearing at each path, it performs recovery transmission to recover the path failure. Simulation results show that proposed protocol is superior to the existing multipath protocols in terms of energy consumption and delivery reliability.

최근에 무선 센서 망에서 이동 싱크를 위한 실시간 라우팅을 지원하기 위한 Expectation Area-based Real-time Routing(EAR2) 프로토콜이 제안되었다. EAR2는 이동 싱크의 예상 지역을 고려하여 예상 지역 내의 플러딩을 이용한다. 그러나, 플러딩은 센서 노드들의 과도한 에너지 소비를 야기하고 실시간 전송에 반하는 긴 전송 지연을 발생한다. 게다가, EAR2는 예상 지역까지 단일 경로만 사용하기 때문에 링크 손실이 많은 무선 센서 망에서 신뢰성 있는 전달을 지원하기 어렵다. 그러므로, 본 논문은EAR2의 이러한 문제들을 해결하기 위해 이동 싱크를 위한 그리드와 다중 경로 기반의 실시간성과 신뢰성 지원 방안을 제안한다. 실시간성을 지원하기 위해 제안 방안은 예상 지역에 추가로 예상 지역 내에 속한 예상 그리드를 고려한다. 제안 방안은 예상 지역 내의 플로딩 대신에 예상 그리드까지의 멀티캐스팅과 예상 그리드에서의 단일 홉 포워딩을 이용한다. 왜냐하면, 멀티캐스팅은 많은 에너지를 절약할 수 있고 단일 홉 포워딩은 적은 전송 지연을 가지기 때문이다. 또한, 제안 방안은 신뢰성을 지원하기 위해 예상 그리드까지 링크 손실에 대처가 가능한 다중 경로를 사용한다. 시뮬레이션 결과는 제안 방안이 기존 방안들보다 성능이 우수함을 보여준다.

Route establishment in Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) is the key mechanism to a successful connection between a pair of source and destination nodes. An efficient routing protocol constructs routing path with minimal time, less routing overhead and capable of utilizing all possible link connectivity. In general, most on-demand MANET routing protocols operates over symmetrical and bidirectional routing path, which is infeasible due to the inherent heterogeneous properties of wireless devices. Simulation results show that the presence of unidirectional links on a network severely affect the performance of a routing protocol. In this paper, a robust protocol independent scheme is proposed, which enable immediate rediscovery of alternative route for a path blocked by a unidirectional link. The proposed scheme is efficient; route rediscovery is locally computed, which results in significant minimization of multiple route packets flooding. Nodes may exploit route information of immediate neighbors using the local reply broadcast technique, which then redirect the control packets around the unidirectional links, therefore maintaining the end-to-end bidirectional connection. The proposed scheme along with Ad Hoc On-demand Distance Vector (AODV) and AODV-Blacklist routing protocol is investigated over three types of mobility models. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme is extremely reliable under poor network conditions and the route connectivity can be improved by as much as 75%.

MANET(Mobile Ad hoc Network)은 infrastructure를 구성하는 것이 경제적으로 불리하거나 물리적으로 어려운 상황에서 인터넷과 같은 대형 통신망의 서비스뿐만 아니라 각 노드간의 통신의 지원에 중점을 둔 네트워크이다. MANET을 구성하는 시스템들의 보호에 있어 가장 중요한 부분은 각 노드들을 안전하게 인증하고 신뢰할 수 있는 서비스를 제공하는 것이고 이를 위해서는 잘 정의된 라우팅 기법이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 안전한 서비스 제공을 위해서 기존의 on-demand 라우팅 프로토콜과 기존 라우팅 프로토콜의 취약성을 해결하기 위해 제시된 보안 라우팅 프로토콜과의 성능을 비교, 분석하여 향후 보안 라우팅 프로토콜의 연구 방향에 대해 논의한다.
