Show moreThis thesis describes a resource discovery technique in mobile ad hoc networks. Resource discovery is technique to search data in among the mobile nodes in the network. The highly dynamic nature of the infrastructure-less ad hoc networks poses new challenges in resource discovery, thus there is a need to for an optimized resource discovery technique. Efficient resource discovery algorithm discovers the resources in a mobile ad-hoc network in an optimized way. As there is no pre-established infrastructure in the network, every node takes its decision in forwarding resources and every node dynamically ranks these resources before disseminating them in the network. Ranking of the resources spreads the data which is of high priority at that instance of time. Ranking avoids the spreads the unwanted or low priority data which will utilize the bandwidth unnecessarily. The efficient resource discovery algorithm also keeps a check that redundant information is not spread in the network with the available bandwidth and the bandwidth is utilized in an optimized manner. We then introduce brokers in the algorithm for a better performance. We present a technique to maintain a constant number of brokers in the network. Our simulations show that, in a network with high density, the efficient resource discovery algorithm gives a better performance than the flooding and rank based broadcast algorithms.

Efficient localized broadcast algorithms in mobile ad hoc networks

Efficient localized broadcast algorithms in mobile ad hoc networks.

Abstract/Description
The broadcast operation has a most fundamental role in mobile ad hoc networks because of the broadcasting nature of radio transmission, i.e., when a sender transmits a packet, all nodes within the sender's transmission range will be affected by this transmission. The benefit of this property is that one packet can be received by all neighbors while the negative effect is that it interferes with other transmissions. Flooding ensures that the entire network receives the packet but generates...
Show moreThe broadcast operation has a most fundamental role in mobile ad hoc networks because of the broadcasting nature of radio transmission, i.e., when a sender transmits a packet, all nodes within the sender's transmission range will be affected by this transmission. The benefit of this property is that one packet can be received by all neighbors while the negative effect is that it interferes with other transmissions. Flooding ensures that the entire network receives the packet but generates many redundant transmissions which may trigger a serious broadcast storm problem that may collapse the entire network. The broadcast storm problem can be avoided by providing efficient broadcast algorithms that aim to reduce the number of nodes that retransmit the broadcast packet while still guaranteeing that all nodes receive the packet. This dissertation focuses on providing several efficient localized broadcast algorithms to reduce the broadcast redundancy in mobile ad hoc networks. In my dissertation, the efficiency of a broadcast algorithm is measured by the number of forward nodes for relaying a broadcast packet. A classification of broadcast algorithms for mobile ad hoc networks has been provided at the beginning. Two neighbor-designating broadcast algorithms, called total dominant pruning and partial dominant pruning, have been proposed to reduce the number of the forward nodes. Several extensions based on the neighbor-designating approach have also been investigated. The cluster-based broadcast algorithm shows good performance in dense networks, and it also provides a constant upper bound approximation ratio to the optimum solution for the number of forward nodes in the worst case. A generic broadcast framework with K hop neighbor information has a trade-off between the number of the forward nodes and the size of the K-hop zone. A reliable broadcast algorithm, called double-covered broadcast, is proposed to improve the delivery ratio of a broadcast package when the transmission error rate of the network is high. The effectiveness of all these algorithms has been confirmed by simulations.

Abstract/Description
A Vehicular Ad-hoc Network (VANET) is a wireless ad-hoc network that provides communications among vehicles with on-board units and between vehicles and nearby roadside units. The success of a VANET relies on the ability of a routing protocol to ful ll the throughput and delivery requirements of any applications operating on the network.

Show moreA Vehicular Ad-hoc Network (VANET) is a wireless ad-hoc network that provides communications among vehicles with on-board units and between vehicles and nearby roadside units. The success of a VANET relies on the ability of a routing protocol to ful ll the throughput and delivery requirements of any applications operating on the network. Currently, most of the proposed VANET routing protocols focus on urban or highway environments. This dissertation addresses the need for an adaptive routing protocol in VANETs which is able to tolerate low and high-density network tra c with little throughput and delay variation. This dissertation proposes three Geographic Ad-hoc On-Demand Distance Vector (GEOADV) protocols. These three GEOADV routing protocols are designed to address the lack of exibility and adaptability in current VANET routing protocols. The rst protocol, GEOADV, is a hybrid geographic routing protocol. The second protocol, GEOADV-P, enhances GEOADV by introducing predictive features. The third protocol, GEOADV-PF improves optimal route selection by utilizing fuzzy logic in addition to GEOADV-P's predictive capabilities. To prove that GEOADV and GEOADV-P are adaptive their performance is demonstrated by both urban and highway simulations. When compared to existing routing protocols, GEOADV and GEOADV-P lead to less average delay and a higher average delivery ratio in various scenarios. These advantages allow GEOADV- P to outperform other routing protocols in low-density networks and prove itself to be an adaptive routing protocol in a VANET environment. GEOADV-PF is introduced to improve GEOADV and GEOADV-P performance in sparser networks. The introduction of fuzzy systems can help with the intrinsic demands for exibility and adaptability necessary for VANETs. An investigation into the impact adaptive beaconing has on the GEOADV protocol is conducted. GEOADV enhanced with an adaptive beacon method is compared against GEOADV with three xed beacon rates. Our simulation results show that the adaptive beaconing scheme is able to reduce routing overhead, increase the average delivery ratio, and decrease the average delay.

Show moreThis work presents the implementations of three adaptive broadcast protocols for vehicular ad hoc networks (VANET) using the Network Simulator 3 (Ns-3). Performing real life tests for VANET protocols is very costly and risky, so simulation becomes a viable alternative technique. Ns-3 is one of the most advanced open source network simulators. Yet Ns-3 lacks implementations of broadcast protocols for VANET. We first implement the Distance to Mean (DTM) protocol, which uses the distance to mean to determine if a node should rebroadcast or not. We then implement the Distribution-Adaptive Distance with Channel Quality (DADCQ) protocol, which uses node distribution, channel quality and distance to determine if a node should favor rebroadcasting. The third protocol, Statistical Location-Assisted Broadcast protocol (SLAB), is an improvement of DADCQ which automates the threshold function design using machine learning. Our NS-3 implementations of the three protocols have been validated against their JiST/SWANS implementations.
