In this paper, the performance of network codingbased gossip algorithms -- i.e. algebraic gossip algorithms -- is analyzed on random geometric graphs under static and mobile environments. The lower bounds for the convergence time of algebraic gossip algorithms are derived based on the conductance, and these bounds are O(n log n log ε -- 1 -- log n log ε -- 1) with node...
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is an area of research that has been getting a lot of attention lately. This is due to the rapid advancements in the design of wireless devices which have increasingly more processing, storage, memory, and networking capabilities. In addition, the cost of sensors is constantly decreasing making it possible to use large quantities of these sensors in a wide variety of...
Delay tolerant networks (DTNs) are a kind of wireless mobile network which may lack continuous network connectivity. Multicast supports the distribution of data to a group of users, a service needed for many potential DTNs applications. While multicasting in the Internet and mobile ad hoc networks has been studied extensively, due to the unique characteristic of frequent partitioning in DTNs, multicasting...
Ad hoc networks are promising but are vulnerable to selfish and malicious attacks. One kind of malicious attack, hidden wormhole attacks, can be mounted easily and be immune to cryptographic techniques. Wormholes distort network topology, and degrade the performance of applications such as localization and data collection. A wormhole attack is one of the most severe threats to an ad hoc network. Unfortunately,...
In this paper, we consider the issue of efficient broadcasting in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) using network coding and directional antennas. Network coding-based broadcasting focuses on reducing the number of transmissions each forwarding node performs in the multiple source/multiple message broadcast application, where each forwarding node combines some of the received messages for transmission...
