The core of the Optimized Link State Routing (OLSR) protocol is the selection of Multipoint Relays (MPRs) as a flooding mechanism for distributing control traffic messages. A node in an OLSR network, selects its MPR set such that all two-hop neighbors are reachable through, at least, one MPR. However, if an MPR misbehaves during the execution of the protocol, the connectivity of the network is compromised...
In this paper, we propose a novel packet forwarding scheme based on network coding that is resilient to jamming attack in a tactical area. Wireless communication is necessary in a battlefield, but it is fragile to jamming attacks from an adversary because of the wireless shared medium. Jamming attack is easily achieved by emitting continuous radio signals and it can interfere with other radio communications...
The wireless mesh network (WMN) backbone is usually comprised of stationary nodes but the transient nature of wireless links results in changing network topologies. Topology Control (TC) aims to preserve network connectivity in ad hoc and mesh networks and an abundance of theoretical results on the effectiveness of TC exist. Practical evaluations of TC schemes that provide gradual transceiver power...
The topology of wireless multihop ad hoc networks can be controlled by varying the transmission power of each node. Topology control is the problem of changing node's transmission power in ad hoc networks so it maintains a specified network topology while minimizing energy consumption and increasing life time. In this paper, we changed the criteria of choosing neighbors in neighbor-based topology...
Wireless ad hoc networks are self-configurable distributed systems. One of the major problems in traditional wireless ad hoc networks is interference. The interference could be reduced using smart directional antennas. In this study, multibeam smart antennas have been used. When using this type of antenna, two nodes can communicate when both the sending and receiving beams are pointing towards each...
Controlled-flooding algorithms are widely used in unstructured networks. Expanding ring (ER) achieves low response delay, while its traffic cost is huge; dynamic querying (DQ) is known for its desirable behavior in traffic control, but it achieves lower search cost at the price of an undesirable latency performance; Enhanced dynamic querying (DQ+) can reduce the search latency too, while it is hard...
This paper presents a simple routing protocol based on topology control that improves the lifetime of a wireless sensor network in the usual convergecast pattern, by allowing the nodes to choose between two predefined power-levels to forward data towards the sink. The proposed protocol takes advantage of non-homogeneous topologies, where the nodes are grouped in clouds. Nodes will only use the highest...
