A Review of the Energy Efficient and Secure Multicast Routing Protocols for Mobile Ad hoc Networks
This paper presents a thorough survey of recent work addressing energy
efficient multicast routing protocols and secure multicast routing protocols in
Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs). There are so many issues and solutions which
witness the need of energy management and security in ad hoc wireless networks.
The objective of a multicast routing protocol for MANETs is to support the
propagation of data from a sender to all the receivers of a multicast group
while trying to use the available bandwidth efficiently in the presence of
frequent topology changes. Multicasting can improve the efficiency of the
wireless link when sending multiple copies of messages by exploiting the
inherent broadcast property of wireless transmission. Secure multicast routing
plays a significant role in MANETs. However, offering energy efficient and
secure multicast routing is a difficult and challenging task. In recent years,
various multicast routing protocols have been proposed for MANETs. These
protocols have distinguishing features and use different mechanismsComment: 15 page
Xcast Based Routing Protocol For Push To Talk Application In Mobile Ad Hoc Networks
Mobile ad-hoc networks comprise a type of wireless network that can be easily
created without the need for network infrastructure or administration. These
networks are organized and administered into temporary and dynamic network
topologies. Unfortunately, mobile ad-hoc networks suffer from some limitations
related to insufficient bandwidth. The proliferation of new IP Multimedia subsystem
services (IMs), such as Push-to-talk (PTT) applications consume large amounts of
bandwidth, resulting in degraded QoS performance of mobile ad-hoc networks. In
this thesis, a Priority XCAST based routing protocol (P-XCAST) is proposed for
mobile ad-hoc networks to minimize bandwidth consumption. P-XCAST is based on
demand route requests and route reply mechanisms for every destination in the PXCAST
layer. To build the network topology and fill up the route table for nodes,
the information in the route table is used to classify the XCAST list of destinations
according to similarities on their next hop. Furthermore, P-XCAST is merged with a
proposed Group Management algorithm to handle node mobility by classifying nodes
into two types: group head and member. The proposed protocol was tested using the
GloMoSim network simulator under different network scenarios to investigate
Quality of Service (QoS) performance network metrics. P-XCAST performance was
better by about 20% than those of other tested routing protocols by supporting of
group size up to twenty receivers with an acceptable QoS. Therefore, it can be
applied under different network scenarios (static or dynamic). In addition Link
throughput and average delay was calculated using queuing network model; as this
model is suitable for evaluating the IEEE 802.11 MAC that is used for push to talk applications. The analytical results for link throughput and average delay were used
to validate the simulated results
Performance Analysis of On-Demand Routing Protocols in Wireless Mesh Networks
Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) have recently gained a lot of popularity due to their rapid deployment and instant communication capabilities. WMNs are dynamically self-organizing, self-configuring and self-healing with the nodes in the network automatically establishing an adiej hoc network and preserving the mesh connectivity. Designing a routing protocol for WMNs requires several aspects to consider, such as wireless networks, fixed applications, mobile applications, scalability, better performance metrics, efficient routing within infrastructure, load balancing, throughput enhancement, interference, robustness etc. To support communication, various routing protocols are designed for various networks (e.g. ad hoc, sensor, wired etc.). However, all these protocols are not suitable for WMNs, because of the architectural differences among the networks. In this paper, a detailed simulation based performance study and analysis is performed on the reactive routing protocols to verify the suitability of these protocols over such kind of networks. Ad Hoc On-Demand Distance Vector (AODV), Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) and Dynamic MANET On-demand (DYMO) routing protocol are considered as the representative of reactive routing protocols. The performance differentials are investigated using varying traffic load and number of source. Based on the simulation results, how the performance of each protocol can be improved is also recommended.Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs), IEEE 802.11s, AODV, DSR, DYMO
On-demand Bandwidth and Stability Based Unicast Routing in Mobile Adhoc Networks
Characteristics of mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) such as lack of central coordination, dynamic topology and limited resources pose a challenging problem in quality of service (QoS) routing. Providing an efficient, robust and low overhead QoS unicast route from source to destination is a critical issue. Bandwidth and route stability are the major important QoS parameters for applications where long duration connections are required with stringent bandwidth requirements for multimedia applications. This paper proposes an On-demand Bandwidth and Stability based Unicast Routing scheme (OBSUR) in MANET by adding additional QoS features to existing Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) protocol. The objective of the OBSUR is to provide QoS satisfied, reliable and robust route for communicating nodes. The scheme works in following steps. (1) Each node in the network periodically (small regular intervals) estimates bandwidth availability, node and link stability, buffer availability, and stability factor between nodes. (2) Construction of neighbor stability and QoS database at every node which is used in route establishment process. (3) The unicast path is constructed by using route request and route reply packets with the help of route information cache, and (4) route maintenance in case of node mobility and route failures. Simulation results show that there is an improvement in terms of traffic admission ratio, control overhead, packet delivery ratio, end to end delay and throughput as compared to Route Stability Based QoS Routing (RSQR) in MANETs.
