  • The characteristics of ad hoc networks, such as the absence of infrastructure, a dynamic topology, a shared wireless medium and a resource-constrained environment pose various security challenges. Most previous studies focused on the detection of misbehavior after it had occurred. However, in this paper we propose a new way of thinking to evade the occurrence of misbehavior. In our scheme, we firstly present a clustering algorithm that employs a powerful analytic hierarchy process methodology to elect a clusterhead for each cluster. The clusterhead in each cluster is then allowed to assign the backoff values to its members, i.e., originators, rather than permitting the originators to choose the backoff values by themselves. Through this media access control layer misbehavior detection mechanism, the misuse of the backoff in the media access control layer in the 802.11 distributed coordination function can be detected.

  • 최근 이동성을 가진 노드들에 의해 자율적으로 구성되는 무선 애드 혹 네트워크(Ad­hoc Network)에 대한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 무선 애드 혹 네트워크 환경을 위한 라우팅 프로토콜은 크게 테이블 기반 라우팅 프로토콜. 요구 기반 라우팅 프로토콜. 그리고 혼합형 라우팅 프로토콜로 구분된다. 특히 무선 애드 혹 네트워크의 요구 기반 라우팅 프로토콜 상에서 한 노드에 여러 데이터가 한꺼번에 집중될 경우 데이터 집중화 현상으로 데이터의 손실이 발생될 수 있다. 이를 해결하기 위해 본 논문에서는 대체 경로를 이용하여 데이터의 손실을 줄이는 라우팅 기법을 제시한다. 제안 기법은 향후 데이터 트래픽이 많이 발생하는 네트워크에 응용될 수 있다.

  • Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) has the characteristics such as dynamic network topology, constrained power capacity, constrained wireless bandwidth and quality, etc. For MANETs AODV (Ad-Hoc On-Demand Distance Vector) routing protocol has been proposed. However AODV routing protocol has some inefficiency related to re-routing path establishment corresponding to node's failure. In this paper, we propose a Self-Healing Routing Technique for MANETs that uses the one-hop nodes from the failed node to set up the routing path efficiently. We also include simulation results to show the performance of our method.

  • Ubiquitous computing, a new type of network environment has been generating much interest recently and has been actively studied. In ubiquitous computing, the sensor network which consists of low electric power ad-hoc network-based sensors and sensor nodes, is particularly the most important factor The sensor network serves as the mediator between ubiquitous computing and the actual environment. Related studies are focused on network . management through lightweight hardware using RFID. However, to apply these to actual environment, more practical scenarios as well as more secured studies equipped with secures and efficiency features are needed. Therefore, this study aims to build a wireless network based on PTD for multi users, which provides the largest utility in individual networks, and propose an appropriate management method. The proposed method is designed to enhance security and efficiency related to various services required in wireless networks, based on the reliable peripheral devices for users or pm. using pm, which has been applied to electronic commerce transactions in existing papers, this study also proposed an appropriate management method that is suitable for a dynamic environment and setting a temporary group to provide various services.

  • Mobile ad hoc nodes are supposed to be equipped with a number of operation modules including a specific routing operation module in heterogeneous MANET environment. It is not possible for a mobile node to carry all the necessary operation modules due to the limited resources. This paper proposes a scheme to reconfiguring mobile ad hoc nodes using smart packets in heterogeneous routing domains. The smart packet protocol has a capability to transfer a binary execution module to a mobile node, by which a node can be equipped with any necessary routing modules in any MANET environment. The proposed smart packet agent is designed to be suitable to a light weight terminal owing to its simple architecture. The utility of the proposed scheme was demonstrated through an example of DYMO scenario in the wireless network.

  • Route failure is mainly caused by mobility of mobile host in ad hoc networks. Route failure, which may lead to sudden packet losses and delays, is losing the route from source to destination. In this situation, TCP assumes that congestion has occurred within the network and also initiates the congestion control procedures. Congestion control algorithm provides the means for the source to deal with lost packets. TCP performance in ad hoc environments will be degraded as TCP source cannot distinguish congestion from route failure. In this paper, we propose TCP-P as pre-detection approach to deal with route failure. TCP-P freezes TCP through pre-detection of route failure. Route failure information of the proposed mechanism is obtained not by routing protocol but by MAC protocol. The intermediated node, obtaining route failure information by its MAC layer, relays the information to TCP source and lets TCP source stop the congestion control algorithm. Results reveal that TCP-P responding with proactive manner outperforms other approaches in terms of communication throughput under the presence of node mobility.

  • This paper proposes an efficient data transmission strategy using adaptive-tier low transmission power schedule in a TDMA-based ad hoc MAC protocol. Since the network resource of ad hoc networks has the characteristic of reassignment due to the multiple interferences and the contention-based limited wireless channel, the efficient time slot assignment and low power transmission scheme are the main research topics in developing ad hoc algorithms. Based on the proposed scheme of interference avoidance when neighbor clusters transmit packets, this paper can minimize the total energy dissipation and maximize the utilization of time slot in each ad hoc node. Simulation demonstrates that the proposed algorithm yields 15.8 % lower energy dissipation and 4.66% higher time slot utilization compared to the ones of two-tier conventional energy dissipation model.

  • In this paper, we propose a multi-channel MAC protocol to improve the channel efficiency and network performance in wireless ad hoc networks. There are two main problems encountered in designing multi-channel MAC protocols. The first problem is the rendezvous problem and the second is multi-channel hidden node problem. In order to solve these problems, most of previous researches that have considered multi-channel MAC protocols use a common control channel to exchange control packets. However, they have a bottleneck problem at common control channel as increasing the number of data channels. The proposed MAC protocol solves the multi-channel hidden node problem using a TDMA scheme and increases the network throughput because transmitting and receiving data at the same time is possible. Also, since there is no common control channel, the network does not suffer from the common control channel saturation problem. Moreover, it achieves energy savings by allowing nodes that are not involved in communication to go into sleep mode. Simulation results show that the proposed MAC protocol improves the network throughput and channel efficiency and provides energy savings.

  • IIoT applies IoT to industrial sites to monitor factors such as production, manufacturing, and safety, and it is a solution that allows the worker to easily manage the site. An important technology element in this IIoT is a technology that collects information on industrial sites and delivers reliable information to managers using sensors. Therefore, general industrial sites use wired network methods such as Ethernet and RS485 to deliver information. However, there are limitations to the problem of infrastructure costs and to the wide range of line constructions in network deployment. Therefore, in this paper, the network of IEEE 802.15.4 Ad-Hoc wireless sensors is deployed on production lines with machine tools. In addition, we describe the routing method considering machine tool layout and sensor node failure detection algorithm.

  • In this paper, we deployed the tunnel inspection and monitoring system by wireless sensor network. It is shown that the wireless sensor network which is composed of sensor, wireless communication module, and gateway system can be applied to tunnel monitoring system. Sensors included herein are acceleration transducers, fire-alarm sensors, water-level sensors, and magnetic contact sensors. It is also found that the wireless sensor network can deliver sensing data reliably by ad-hoc networking technology. The gateway system that can send the sensing data to server by CDMA (code division multiple access) is developed. Finally, monitoring system is constructed by web service technology, and it is observed that this system can monitor the present state of tunnel without difficulties. Furthermore, the above system provides an alternative to inspect and monitor the tunnel efficiently where the conventional wired system cannot be applied.
