Mobile Ad Hoc Network(MANET)에서는, 각 모바일 노드들이 하나의 연결을 유지하는 단말 호스트로 동작함과 동시에 라우터로서도 동작한다. 따라서 유선 네트워크와는 달리 라우터 뿐만 아니라 단말 호스트에서의 네트워크 혼잡이 고려의 대상이 되어야 한다. 네트워크 계층 간에 동작하는 플로우 컨트롤 알고리즘을 사용한다면, 단말 호스트(플로우의 소스 혹은 목적 노드)에서의 패킷 드롭을 줄임으로써 TCP throughput율 증가시킬 수 있다. 일반적으로 MANET의 링크 레이어 프로토콜로는 IEEE 802.11 MAC 프로토콜이 많이 사용되지만, 이 프로토콜은 링크 레이어에서의 플로우 컨트롤을 제공하지는 않는다. 링크 레이어 플로우 컨트롤은 패킷이 전송된 직후에 버퍼 오버플로우로 인해 드롭되는 것을 방지할 수 있으며, 이는 결과적으로 대역폭의 낭비와 전력사용을 줄일 수 있다. 이 논문에서 2개의 플로우 컨트롤 알고리즘, 즉 수직 플로우 컨트롤과 수명 플로우 컨트롤을 제안한다.

본 논문에서는 센서 네트워크 환경에, MANET기반의 라우팅 프로토콜인 AODV[1]를 적용하여 실험한 내용에 대해 소개한다. AODV는 RREQ, RREP 그리고 RERR등의 제어 메시지를 이용하여, 데이터를 전송하기 위한 망을 동적으로 구성하는 특징을 갖는다. MANET환경에 비해서 센서네트워크 환경은 에너지 사용 혹은 네트워크 망 구성에 있어서 많은 제약조건을 갖고 있다. 이러한 센서 네트워크 망에 AODV를 적용하였을 경우 어떠한 특성이 나타나는지 문제점을 분석하였다. 시뮬레이션 환경으로는 NS-2 시뮬레이터를 이용하여 구성하였으며 AODV 라우팅 프로토콜을 이용하여 싱크 수 증가, 소스 수 증가와 S-MAC을 적용함에 따른 평균 메시지 Delay, 평균 소비 에너지, 평균 데이터 전송률 등이 어떻게 변화하는지 살펴보았으며 센서 네트워크 환경에서의 성능을 확인하였다.

In this paper a novel medium access control mechanism is investigated as a means to support real-time services. The primary goal is to provide constant-bit-rate voice call services to pairs of autonomous mobile nodes operating in ad hoc networks. Here, a time-slot reservation based MAC is considered to provide real-time voice calls and a new MAC called the time-slot reservation coordination function(TRCF) is presented. In addition to this isochronous type MAC protocol development, the proposed protocol is modeled using a Markov chain in order to predict its behavior. The performance of TRCF is analytically derived and the performance measures such as average wait time taken for a call connection and throughput are obtained.

VANET are a special kind of MANET adapted to the communications between vehicles. In this work, we propose the models used for representing the communication among vehicles, vehicles mobility features, and VANET simulator using realistic vehicular mobility models. VANET requires that a traffic and network simulator should be used together to perform this test. But, simulator tool has been preferred over traffic simulation because it simple, easy and cheap. Goal of this paper is to create a simulation of Vehicular Ad-Hoc network for urban scenario which can be used for testing purposes. Such environment can be used while designing better MAC protocols in VANETs. We are evaluating the performance of two routing protocols namely AODV and DSDV. The comparison was based on the throughout, packet loss and end-to-end delay. We found that DSDV has less throughput performance and high routing overhead than AODV. On average end-to-end delay and packet loss, AODV performs better than DSDV.

Ad hoc networks are a type of mobile network that function without any fixed infrastructure. One of the weaknesses of ad hoc network is that a route used between a source and a destination is to break during communication. To solve this problem, one approach consists of selecting routes whose nodes have the most stable link cost. This paper proposes a method for improving the low power distributed MAC. This method is based on the context awareness of the each nodes energy in clustering. We propose to select a new scheme to optimize energy conserving between the clustering nodes in MANET. And this architecture scheme would use context-aware considering the energy related information such as energy, RF strength, relative distances between each node in mobile ad hoc networks. The proposed networks scheme could get better improve the awareness for data to achieve and performance on their clustering establishment and messages transmission. Also, by using the context aware computing, according to the condition and the rules defined, the sensor nodes could adjust their behaviors correspondingly to improve the network routing.

Ad hoc 센서 네트워크에서 노드는 제한된 에너지를 가지며, 에너지의 사용률은 토폴로지 구조나 센서 노드의 동작에 의존한다. 본 논문에서는 low power distributed MAC을 개량 하여, MANET에서 clustering 구조의 네트워크를 위한 효율적인 에너지 절약을 위한 새로운 구조를 제안한다. 본 제안된 구조의 특징은 Ad hoc 네트워크에서 에너지에 관련된 배터리 파워나, 노드의 거리, 전송 전력 등의 정보를 활용한 상황 인식을 사용하였다. 에너지 상황 인식을 적용한 제안된 망의 구조는 clustering 형상과 메시지 전송의 성능 및 데이터의 도달 인식을 향성 시킨다. 또한 context aware computing을 이용함으로써, 상황과 정의된 rule에 따라서 노드의 동작과 네크워크 라우팅의 상황에 적응하도록 노드를 조정 할 수 있는 구조이다.

In the case of traffic accidents, the broadcasting methods used in the mobile ad hoc network (MANET) cannot applied to transmit reliable message since moving high-speed in vehicular ad hoc networks (VANET) environments. In this paper, in order to guarantee transmitting reliable messages, we propose a collision avoidance method based-on directional antenna in VANET. In order to reduce interference from omni-broadcasting and to avoid hidden node problem from moving high-speed, we employed a forward-handed and backward directional antenna. The authors simulated the proposed method based on directional antenna and showed that the proposed method has been improved in respect to network utilization compared to existing VANET protocols.

The MAC layer in ad-hoc network which makes network of nodes without infrastructure for a time has became an issue to reduce delay, allocate fairly bandwidth, control TX/RX power and improve throughput. Specially, the problem to reduce power consumption in ad-hoc network is very important part as ad-hoc devices use the limited battery. For solution of the problem, many power control algorithms, such as distribute power control, PCM (Power Control MAC) and F-PCF (Fragmentation based PCM), are proposed to limit power consumption until now. Although the algorithms are designed to minimize power consumption, the latency communication zone is generated by power control of RX/TX nodes. However the algorithms don't suitably reuse the space. In this paper proposes the algorithm to improve data throughput through Spatial Reuse based on a power control method.

In Mobile Ad-Hoc Network (MANET) Application, routing protocol is essential to ensure successful data transmission to all nodes. Ad-hoc On-demand Distance Vector (AODV) Protocol is a reactive routing protocol that is mostly used in MANET applications. However, the protocol causes Route Request (RREQ) message flooding issue due to the broadcasting method at the route request stage to find a path to a particular destination, where the RREQ will be rebroadcast if no Request Response (RREP) message is received. A scalable neighbor-based routing (SNBR) protocol was then proposed to overcome the issue. In the SNBR protocol, the RREQ message is only rebroadcast if the number of neighbor nodes less than a certain fix number, known as drop factor. However, since a network always have a dynamic characteristic with a dynamic number of neighbor nodes, the fix drop factor in SNBR protocol could not provide an optimal flooding problem solution in a low dense network environment, where the RREQ message is continuously rebroadcast RREQ message until reach the fix drop factor. To overcome this problem, a new broadcasting method as Dynamic SNBR (DSNBR) is proposed, where the drop factor is determined based on current number of neighbor nodes. This method rebroadcast the extra RREQ messages based on the determined dynamic drop factor. The performance of the proposed DSNBR is evaluated using NS2 and compared with the performance of the existing protocol; AODV and SNBR. Simulation results show that the new routing protocol reduces the routing request overhead, energy consumption, MAC Collision and enhances end-to-end delay, network coverage ratio as a result of reducing the extra route request messages.

Time synchronization plays an important role in mobile communication systems, particularly, when an accurate time-division mechanism among the communication entities is required. We present a new time synchronization algorithm for a wireless mobile ad-hoc network assuming that communication link is managed by a time-slot reservation-based medium access control protocol. The central idea is to reduce time synchronization packet collisions by exploiting the advantages found in reference broadcasting. In addition, we adopt a sophisticated clock updating scheme to ensure the time synchronization convergence. To verify the performance of our algorithm, a set of network simulations has been performed under various mobile ad-hoc network scenarios using the OPNET. The results obtained from the simulations show that the proposed method outperforms the conventional TSF method in terms of synchronization accuracy and convergence time.
