This paper proposes the UIGRP, which can tackle the problem of the network disconnection and packet transmission delay caused by turning vehicles frequently in an urban intersection. The UIGRP was designed as follows. First, it calculates the direction of vehicles using the moving direction of vehicles and the location of a destination. Second, it makes the RSU measure the density of an urban intersection. Third, the TGF Algorithm in the UIGRP decides the data transmission paths by setting as an intermediate node, not only the vehicle that is moving in the direction where a destination node is located, but also the node that has the highest density. The TGF algorithm using a moving direction and density minimizes or removes the occurrence of local maximum problems that the existing Greedy Forwarding algorithm has. Therefore, the simulation result shows that UIGRP decreases the occurrence of local maximum problems by 3 and 1 times, and the packet transmission time by 6.12 and 2.04(ms), and increases the success rate of packet transmission by 15 and 3%, compared to the existing GPSR and GPUR.

Holes that generated by the unpredictable and harsh nature application environment or uneven energy consumption are an inevitable phenomenon in wireless sensor networks. Most of the existing schemes for this hole problem tend to use a static detour path to bypass a hole. The static detour path may lead to uneven energy consumption of the nodes on the boundary of the hole, thus it may enlarge the region of holes. At the same time, traffic would concentrate on the nodes on the boundary of the hole and tend to be depleted quickly. To solve this problem, we introduce energy-efficient grid-based geographic routing and hole-detouring scheme by taking advantage of grid anchor point in wireless sensor network with holes. The location of hole detour anchor node is dynamically shifted in grid cell. just generating dynamic hole detour paths to reduce total energy consumption. Simulation results are provided to validate the claims.

MANET is a network composed itself because mobile nodes are connected wirelessly. It has been applied to various fields for group communication. However, the dynamic topology by the movement of the nodes causes routing failure frequently because it is difficult to maintain the position information of the nodes participating in the group communication. Also, it has a problem that network performance is decreased due to high overhead for managing information of member nodes. In this paper, we propose a multicast technique using location-based 2-tier virtual group that is flexible and reliable in management of member nodes. The network is composed of cellular zones and the virtual group is constructed using the location information of the nodes in the proposed technique. The virtual group management node is selected to minimize the overhead of location information management for member nodes in the virtual group. In order to improve the reliability for management of member nodes and multicast data transmission, it excludes the gateway node with low transfer rate when setting the route after the packet transmission rate of the member nodes is measured. The excellent performance of the proposed technique can be confirmed through comparative experiments with AMroute method and PAST-DM method.

Vehicular network is one of the most important subjects for researchers in recent years. Anycast routing protocols have many applications in vehicular ad hoc networks. The aim of an anycast protocol is sending packets to at least one of the receivers among candidate receivers. Studies done on anycast protocols over vehicular networks, however, have capability of implementation on some applications; they are partial, and application specific. No need to say that the lack of a comprehensive study, having a strong analytical background, is felt. Mathematical modeling in vehicular networks is difficult because the topology of these networks is dynamic. In this paper, it has been demonstrated that vehicular networks can be modeled based on time-expanded networks. The focus of this article is on geographical anycast. Three different scenarios were proposed including sending geographic anycast packet to exactly-one-destination, to at-least-one-destination, and to K-anycast destination, which can cover important applications of geographical anycast routing protocols. As the proposed model is of MILP type, a decentralized heuristic algorithm was presented. The evaluation process of this study includes the production of numerical results by Branch and Bound algorithm in general algebraic modeling system (GAMS) software and simulation of the proposed protocol in OMNET++ simulator. The comprehension of the result of proposed protocol and model shows that the applicability of this proposed protocol and its reactive conformity with the presented models based on presented metrics.

A GRId-based Soil MOsture Routing Model(GRISMORM) which predicts temporal variation and spatial distribution of water balance on a daily time step for each grid element of the watershed was developed. The model was programmed by C-language which aims for high flexibility to any kind of GIS softwares. The model uses ASCII-formatted map data supported by the irregular gridded map of the GRASS(Geographic Resources Analysis Support System)-GIS and generates daily or monthly spatial distribution map of water balance components within the watershed. The model was applied to Ipyunggyo watershed(75.6$km^2$) ; the part of Bocheongchun watershed. Predicted streamflows resulting from two years(95 and 96) daily data were compared with those observed at the watershed outlet. The results of temporal variation and spatial distribution of soil moisture are also presented by using GRASS.

Accurate and low-cost sensor localization is a critical requirement for the deployment of wireless sensor networks in a wide variety of application. Sensor position is used for its data to be meaningful and for energy efficient data routing algorithm especially geographic routing. The previous works for sensor localization utilize global positioning system(GPS) or estimate unknown-location nodes position with help of some small reference nodes which know their position previously. However, the traditional localization techniques are not well suited in the senor network for the cost of sensors is too high. In this paper, we propose the sensor localization method with a mobile robot, which knows its position, moves through the sensing field along pre-scheduled path and gives position information to the unknown-location nodes through wireless channel to estimate their position. We suggest using the sensor position estimation method and an efficient mobility path model. To validate our method, we carried out a computer simulation, and observed that our technique achieved sensor localization more accurately and efficiently than the conventional one.

Greedy forwarding is a key mechanism of geographic routing using distance as a metric. As greedy forwarding only uses 1-hop neighbor node information, it minimizes routing overhead and is highly scalable. In existing greedy forwarding schemes, a node selects a next forwarding node based only on the distance. However, the signal strength in a realistic environment reduces exponentially depending on the distance, so that by considering only the distance, it may cause a large number of data packet retransmissions. To solve this problem, many greedy forwarding schemes have been proposed. However, they do not consider the unreliable and asymmetric characteristics of wireless links and thus cause the waste of limited battery resources due to the data packet retransmissions. In this paper, we propose a reliable and energy-efficient opportunistic greedy forwarding scheme for unreliable and asymmetric links (GF-UAL). In order to further improve the energy efficiency, GF-UAL opportunistically uses the path that is expected to have the minimum energy consumption among the 1-hop and 2-hop forwarding paths within the radio range. Comprehensive simulation results show that the packet delivery rate and energy efficiency increase up to about 17% and 18%, respectively, compared with the ones in PRR${\times}$Distance greedy forwarding.

센서 망에서 비어 있는 공간(홀)은 현실의 다양한 지리적인 환경 때문에 회피하는 것이 쉽지 않다. 일반적으로 데이터 패킷이 홀 경계에 마주쳤을 경우, 목적지까지의 다른 길을 찾기 위해 라이트 핸드 법칙(right hand rule) 또는 푸쉬드 백(pushed back)을 이용하여 홀 경계를 따라 패킷을 전달한다. 한편, 라이트 핸드 룰은 홀 경계에 있는 노드들의 에너지를 더 많이 소모하므로 홀이 확장될 것이다. 또한 동시에 여러 통신 세션이 같은 홀의 경계를 공유한다면 데이터 충돌을 초래할 것이다. 이 논문에서 우리는 무선센서 망에서의 홀 문제를 해결하기 위해 라우팅 홀 우회 방안을 제안한다. 우리의 라우팅 홀 우회 방안은 두 가지 목표를 갖는다: 하나는 데이터 패킷이 홀의 경계를 따라 이동하는 것을 방지하는 것이고, 다른 하나는 로컬 미니멈(local minimum) 문제를 피하는 것이다. 시뮬레이션 결과는 우리의 방안이 다른 프로토콜들에 비해 제어 부하와 에너지 소비 면에서 우수하다는 것을 보여준다.

In wireless sensor networks(WSNs), geographical routing algorithms can enhance the network capacity. However, in real WSNs, it is difficult for each node to know its physical location accurately. Especially, indoor environments contain various obstacles such as concrete wall, furniture which cause non-line-of-sight(NLOS) conditions. To solve the problem, we propose location error compensation algorithm by using two difference topology constructions. First topology is based on mobile node's location which is obtained from anchor nodes. Second topology is based on mutual distance from neighbor nodes. The proposed algorithm efficiently detects and corrects the location errors and significantly enhances the network performance of geographic routing in the presence of location errors.

Geographic forwarding algorithms을 사용하는 Georouting protocol에서는 route maintenance을 위해서 고정된 주기마다 beacon message을 이웃노드에 전송하는 fixed periodical beacon based route algorithm을 사용하여 mobile node 정보를 습득한다. Fixed periodical beacon scheme에서의 기존 연구 이슈는 이웃노드 정보의 신뢰성을 유지하기 위해서 다양한 mobility environment 환경에 맞도록 beacon 전송주기를 적절히 결정하는 연구가 진행되어 왔다. 이와 같은 연구에서는 long periodical interval 사용 시 이웃노드의 위치정보 error을 발생시킬 확률이 높으며 또한 short periodical interval 의 경우 네트워크 내에 high route overhead 을 유발시키는 단점을 가지고 있다. 따라서 고정된 주기 방법은 다양한 mobility environment에 잘 적용되지 못하며 또한 mobility environment 에서 발생하는 route maintenance 내에 이웃노드 정보에 대한 불확실성 문제가 빈번이 발생하여 경로 설정에 잘못된 정보를 제공하여 경로 신뢰성(path reliability)과 낮은 전송률 (transmission rate)을 야기한다. 본 논문에서는 이런 이웃노드 정보의 불확실성 문제를 극복하기 위해서 mobile node가 스스로 자신의 위치를 체크하여 routing table을 능동적으로 갱신하는 방법을 이용하여 이 문제를 극복할 수 있도록 하였다. 모의 실험은 ns2를 이용하여 실시하였으며 결과는 low/high mobility scenario에서는 기존 방법 보다 routing overhead 을 줄이면서 높은 전송률 (transmission rate)을 보인다.
