Advancements in automobile industries and the communication technologies caused VANET (Vehicular Ad Hoc NETwork) to evolve to VANET-based clouds before its deployment. It is more likely that VANET clouds will replace the traditional VANET in the deployment phase. It is to be noted that an abrupt deployment is out of question because it would require mass of resources and money to do so; instead incremental deployment is more ideal. In this paper, we aim at the incremental deployment phase of VANET clouds and focus on the well-established public transport networks. Data aggregation is one of the essential aspects in traditional VANET and has been researched for quite long time. However the previously proposed schemes are still controversial. Keeping in mind the time and space prediction of public buses, we leverage these buses as potential aggregators and MG (Mobile Gateways) in VANET clouds. Buses gather cooperative whereabouts information from neighbors, aggregate that information, disseminate it to the neighbor MGs and also send it to the cloud for storage and for services exchange. In our proposed scheme, we believe that the dissemination will be effective and cover most of the urban area since at any instant of time; buses cover most part of the urban areas. Besides, the effective transmission range is higher due to tall buses.

최근 무선 컴퓨팅 환경과 무선 단말기관련 기술의 발전으로 인해 모바일 애드혹 네트워크관련 연구가 활발하게 이루어지고 있다. 모바일 애드혹 네트워크에서는 노드들이 자유롭게 이동하기 때문에 네트워크가 빈번하게 분리되며, 이로 인해 데이터 접근성 저하문제가 발생한다. 기존 연구에서는 데이터 접근성이 저하되는 문제를 해결하기 위해 다양한 복제본 할당 기법이 연구되었다. 그러나, 지금까지 연구된 복제본 할당기법들은 모바일 애드혹 네트워크 환경의 제한된 자원으로 인한 노드들의 이기적인 행동에 대해 고려하지 않았다. 본 논문은 모바일 애드혹 네트워크 상의 노드들이 자신의 이득을 위해 협력이 아닌 이기적인 행동을 택하게 되는 과정을 게임이론을 통해 설명하고, 수익함수 조절을 통해 노드들의 이기적인 행동을 억제할 수 있는 방안을 제시한다.

This paper represents an interworking architecture for keeping the VLC audio quality between Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX) and IEEE 802.11 Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) where both mobile routers and mobile nodes are moving dynamically. Systematic performance analysis on the interworking architecture has been conducted by using OPNET simulator to show the results such as Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR) and throughput. Based on simulation results, when the number of MANET nodes is small, PDR remains relatively stable even though data packets increase. However, with the many MANET nodes, PDR decreases as data traffic increases. Throughput is affected by the number of MANET nodes. Especially when the MANET node density has increased further, throughput is much higher, but it is not affected by the mobility speed. However, FTP download and upload response time is not affected much by both the number of MANET nodes and the mobility speed.

The MANET that can make autonomous distributed Network with Routing function has many differences than past wireless communication. For upcoming ALL-IP environment, MANET device should be connected with wired Internet Network and MANET is required to have a gateway to bridge two different networks to share information from any place. In this paper, Using the GMAHN Algorithm proposed Proactive, Reactive, Hybrid method that provides Inteface between Wired Internet network and MANET, we learned each method's the advantage and disadvantage through the various network environments. And also, we presented the optimization method of Hybrid combined Proactive with Reactive.

We propose MBAP(Multi-rate Broadcast Active Probing) technique to get the right measurements for link quality in Wireless Mesh Network (WMN). Most routing protocols for WMN make use of link quality-aware routing metrics, such as ETX(Expected Transmission Count) and ETT(Expected Transmission Time), while the hop count is usually used in MANET (Mobile Ad-hoc NETwork). A broadcast based active proving technique is adopted in the previous studies to get the ETX or ETT of a link. However this technique does not reflect the multi-rate feature of WLAN because it uses a single fixed transmission rate for broadcast which usually differs from the actual rate used in data transmissions. MBAP overcomes this shortage by exploiting various rate broadcast frames for probing. We implement MBAP on linux system by modifying WLAN driver and related kernel sub-systems. Experimental results show that MBAP can capture link quality more accurately than the existing techniques.

Scalable routing is one of the key challenges in designing and operating large scale MANETs. Performance of routing protocols proposed so far is only guaranteed under various limitation, i.e., dependent of the number of nodes in the network or needs the location information of destination node. Due to the dependency to the number of nodes in the network, as the number of nodes increases the performance of previous routing protocols degrade dramatically. We propose Cluster Overlay Dynamic Source Routing (CODSR) protocol. We conduct performance analysis by means of computer simulation under various conditions - diameter scaling and density scaling. Developed algorithm outperforms the DSR algorithm, e.g., more than 90% improvement as for the normalized routing load. Operation of CODSR is very simple and we show that the message and time complexity of CODSR is independent of the number of nodes in the network which makes CODSR highly scalable.

NanoQplus, which is an embedded operating system for wireless sensor networks (WSNs) and developed by Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute (ETRI), provides programmer-friendly preemptive multi-threading programming technique, but it has poor network protocol stack, as compared to TinyOS, one of the famous operating systems for WSNs. In this paper, we apply dynamic MANET on-demand routing (DYMO) protocol, which is being standardized in Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), to NanoQplus. Since DYMO has been proposed for mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) and MANETs have less resource restrictions than WSNs, the basic DYMO protocol cannot be applied to WSNs without modifications. Moreover, coherence with MAC protocol should be considered in order to eliminate redundant data between MAC and network layers. Thus, we propose a modified version of the basic DYMO protocol for NanoQplus. The experimental results from a real sensor network test-bed show that the DYMO implementation using NanoQplus works efficiently in WSNs.

We study the connection time of vehicle-to-mobile roadside unit (V2MR) communications which can reduce the significant cost of the fixed RSU by installing a gateway of mobile network into a transit bus called the mobile RSU. In the V2MR communications, the connectivity of a commute vehicle can be improved via ad-hoc connection to a nearby mobile RSU. In this paper, we present a new analysis model to estimate the connection time between a commute vehicle and a mobile RSU, when there is a bus station in the overlapping route. Since the connection time between two vehicles is highly dynamic and unpredictable, our analysis will provide a fundamental basis of connection-time estimation of V2MR communications. Numerical results obtained from VEINS simulation show that our analysis can estimate the connection time of V2MR communications with the average error below 1.0 percent. Moreover, we show that the average connection time of V2MR communications can be extended to approximately 3.85 times of that of V2R communications.

In mobile ad-hoc networks (MANET), the network topology and neighboring nodes change frequently, since MANET is composed of nodes that have mobility without a fixed network infrastructure. The AODV routing protocol is advantageous for MANET, but AODV has a delay in the transmission of data packets because AODV can not transmit data during route recovery. This paper proposes solving the above problem of AODV by using a bypass generation mechanism for data transmission during route recovery. For further improvement, additional mechanisms that coordinate the reception threshold of a hello packet are proposed in order to improve the accuracy of the information obtained from the neighboring nodes when the bypass is generated due to a link failure and the immediacy of the route recovery. Simulation results show that the proposed technique improves the performance in terms of the delay in transmission compared to traditional AODV.

It is difficult to maintain mutes in the mobile ad hoc network (MANET) due to the high probability of disconnected routes break by frequent change of topology. The links can have the different reliability about data transmission due to these characteristics. Hence a measure which can evaluate this reliability and a algorithm which reflects this are required. In this paper, we propose routing algorithm based on reliability about transmission. First the bayesian inference which infers the hypothesis by past information is considered to obtain the link's transmission reliability. The other is that the link-based reliability estimation model which considers each link's reliability additionally is proposed while the standard uses only Dijkstra's shortest path algorithm. the simulation results using NS-2 show that the performance of proposed algorithm is superior to the standard OLSR in terms of throughput and stability.
