Neighbour coverage: a dynamic probabilistic route discovery for mobile ad hoc networks
Blind flooding is extensively use in ad hoc routing protocols for on-demand route discovery, where a mobile node blindly rebroadcasts received route request (RREQ) packets until a route to a particular destination is established. This can potentially lead to high channel contention, causing redundant retransmissions and thus excessive packet collisions in the network. Such a phenomenon induces what is known as broadcast storm problem, which has been shown to greatly increase the network communication overhead and end-to-end delay. In this paper, we show that the deleterious impact of such a problem can be reduced if measures are taken during the dissemination of RREQ packets. We propose a generic probabilistic method for route discovery, that is simple to implement and can significantly reduce the overhead associated with the dissemination of RREQs. Our analysis reveals that equipping AODV with probabilistic route discovery can result in significant reduction of routing control overhead while achieving good throughput
Latency Optimal Broadcasting in Noisy Wireless Mesh Networks
In this paper, we adopt a new noisy wireless network model introduced very
recently by Censor-Hillel et al. in [ACM PODC 2017, CHHZ17]. More specifically,
for a given noise parameter any sender has a probability of
of transmitting noise or any receiver of a single transmission in its
neighborhood has a probability of receiving noise.
In this paper, we first propose a new asymptotically latency-optimal
approximation algorithm (under faultless model) that can complete
single-message broadcasting task in time units/rounds in any
WMN of size and diameter . We then show this diameter-linear
broadcasting algorithm remains robust under the noisy wireless network model
and also improves the currently best known result in CHHZ17 by a
factor.
In this paper, we also further extend our robust single-message broadcasting
algorithm to multi-message broadcasting scenario and show it can broadcast
messages in time rounds. This new robust
multi-message broadcasting scheme is not only asymptotically optimal but also
answers affirmatively the problem left open in CHHZ17 on the existence of an
algorithm that is robust to sender and receiver faults and can broadcast
messages in time rounds.Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1705.07369 by other author
Message and time efficient multi-broadcast schemes
We consider message and time efficient broadcasting and multi-broadcasting in
wireless ad-hoc networks, where a subset of nodes, each with a unique rumor,
wish to broadcast their rumors to all destinations while minimizing the total
number of transmissions and total time until all rumors arrive to their
destination. Under centralized settings, we introduce a novel approximation
algorithm that provides almost optimal results with respect to the number of
transmissions and total time, separately. Later on, we show how to efficiently
implement this algorithm under distributed settings, where the nodes have only
local information about their surroundings. In addition, we show multiple
approximation techniques based on the network collision detection capabilities
and explain how to calibrate the algorithms' parameters to produce optimal
results for time and messages.Comment: In Proceedings FOMC 2013, arXiv:1310.459
