The PBNM on MANET is being researched to ensure the reliability and efficiency between mobile nodes. Therefore, it is essential to determine the cluster effectively which will perceive the movements of nodes and distribute the policies. In PBNM mechanism, to determine the node cluster for PDP and manage PEP nodes, Active PDP Discovery Protocol is proposed as a mechanism which is more efficient than preexistent techniques. While k-hop cluster selects the PEP nodes which PDP node manages, Active PDP Discovery actively selects the PDP node among the moving PEP node. This method prevents orphan nodes that are not connected to PDP and reduces continual broadcasting messages. This paper implements Active PDP Discovery which determines cluster in the real networks and analyzes its capability, expanding COPS-PR to detect the movement of nodes and adding MNL to PDP node.

모바일 에드 혹 네트워크(Mobile Ad hoc Network)는 이동성을 가진 노드로 구성된 네트워크로서, 통신기반 시설의 지원이 없어도 스스로 통신망을 구축하여 통신한다. 하지만 노드의 이동성으로 인한 토폴로지의 변화가 빈번하여, 라우팅 경로 재설정으로 인한 오버헤드가 생성된다. 오버헤드 생성을 줄이기 위하여 클러스터링을 이용한 연구가 진행되어 왔다. 클러스터가 형성된 MANET에서 클러스터 헤드 노드가 이동함에 따라 클러스터 영역을 벗어나게 되었을 경우, 클러스터 그룹에 속하는 멤버 노드들은 패킷을 보내지 못하며, 클러스터 헤드노드를 선출하지 못하여 사용할 수 없는 노드가 된다. 본 논문에서는 클러스터 헤드 노드가 클러스터 영역을 벗어날 경우, 클러스터 멤버노드의 상황인자 속성 벡터 정보가 유사한 클러스터 헤드노드를 이웃한 주변 클러스터 헤드로부터 검색 및 선택하여, 우회경로를 제공하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안된 알고리즘에서 각 노드는 상황정보 매트릭스를 가지고 있어, 전송 커버리지 영역이 2홉 이내 반경에 있는 노드의 벡터 정보를 저장하게 된다. 클러스터 헤드 노드와의 연결이 끊어 졌을 경우, 클러스터 멤버 노드는 상황정보 매트릭스를 이용하여, 벡터정보가 유사한 클러스터 헤드 노드를 선택하여, 노드 간의 연결성 및 패킷의 전달성이 향상 된다.

The current maritime data communications mainly depend on radio and satellite which have restrictions on data rate and cost. That leads to needs of novel relatively-high-speed data communication systems at sea just like on land. This paper proposes a routing protocol (MWR) for newly designed model of ship-to-ship communication networks at sea. The MWR protocol finds out an optimal route by selecting an optimal network for each specific application from overlapped networks of available wireless media at sea.

In mobile ad-hoc networks, it should be the most important issue to reduce the power consumption of communications, because the resource of a node is limited in these networks. In existing cluster-based routing protocols, cluster headers participate in almost all communication processes. Therefore the lifetime of the cluster header is shortened and it does not have the effective route. In the proposed cluster-based routing protocol, the cluster header transmits a control packet which gives the route information to member nodes. This makes that the cluster header decreases the number of participating in communications, and that node members do not have to communicate trough the cluster header. This results in extending the lifetime of the cluster header, and having the effective route, data transmission rate and improved stability of routes.

The most critical research issue in MANET environment is on supporting reliable communication between various devices. Various Multi-Hop Routing Protocol studies have proceeded. However, some problems you might have found when you use the existing link state routing technique are that it increases Control Message Overhead and it is unstable when node moves in CR circumstance which has transformation of using channel and MIMC circumstance which uses a number of interfaces. This essay offers a technique which is based on On-Demand Hello and the other technique which used Broadcast Interface of optimization as a solution to decrease Control Message Overhead. Also it proposes Quick Route Restoration technique which is utilized by GPS and MPR Selection technique which consider mobility as a solution of stable communication when node moves. Those offered Routing Protocol and OPNET based simulator result will be expected to be an excellent comparison in related research fields.

Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) have become a viable platform owing to their potential of providing communication without any pre-existing infrastructure and central administrating authority. Mutual support and co-operation among nodes are prerequisites for performing functions in such networks. The scarcity of resources makes it economical for nodes to conserve their resources and misbehave by avoiding participation in the network. Therefore, a mechanism is required to detect and handle such misbehaving nodes and promote co-operation in the network. Existing techniques for handling misbehaving nodes focus only on their current behaviour without considering the antecedent behaviour of nodes. In real world, a node may dynamically change its behaviour in accordance to its requirements. Hence, an efficient mechanism is required for providing security against such misbehaviour. This paper proposes an Adaptive Security Model which contemplates the present as well as anterior behaviour of nodes for providing security against dynamic node behaviour. The adaptivity of the model is nested in its ability to requite well-behaving nodes and penalize misbehaving ones in conformity with their overall behaviour. Simulation results indicate the efficiency of proposed scheme in securing the network from the menace of dynamic behaviour of nodes.

We propose MBAP(Multi-rate Broadcast Active Probing) technique to get the right measurements for link quality in Wireless Mesh Network (WMN). Most routing protocols for WMN make use of link quality-aware routing metrics, such as ETX(Expected Transmission Count) and ETT(Expected Transmission Time), while the hop count is usually used in MANET (Mobile Ad-hoc NETwork). A broadcast based active proving technique is adopted in the previous studies to get the ETX or ETT of a link. However this technique does not reflect the multi-rate feature of WLAN because it uses a single fixed transmission rate for broadcast which usually differs from the actual rate used in data transmissions. MBAP overcomes this shortage by exploiting various rate broadcast frames for probing. We implement MBAP on linux system by modifying WLAN driver and related kernel sub-systems. Experimental results show that MBAP can capture link quality more accurately than the existing techniques.

Recently, multicast routing protocols become increasingly important aspect in Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs), as they effectively manage group communications. Meanwhile, multimedia and real-time applications are becoming essential need for users of MANET. Thus it is necessary to design efficient and effective Quality of Service (QoS) multicast routing strategies. In this paper, we address the scalability problem of multicast routing protocols to support QoS over MANETs. In particular, we introduce a Position-Based QoS Multicast Routing Protocol (PBQMRP). Basically, the protocol based on dividing the network area into virtual hexagonal cells. Then, the location information is exploited to perform efficient and scalable route discovery. In comparison with other existing QoS multicast routing protocols, PBQMRP incurs less control packets by eliminating network flooding behavior. Through simulation, the efficiency and scalability of PBQMRP are evaluated and compared with the well-known On-Demand Multicast Routing Protocol (ODMRP). Simulation results justify that our protocol has better performance, less control overhead and higher scalability.

Nodes in MANETs are battery powered which makes energy an invaluable resource. In OLSR, MPRs are special nodes that are selected by other nodes to relay their data/control traffic which may lead to high energy consumption of MPR nodes. Therefore, employing energy efficient MPR selection mechanism is imperative to ensure prolonged network lifetime. However, misbehaving MPR nodes tend to preserve their energy by dropping packets of other nodes instead of forwarding them. This leads to huge energy loss and performance degradation of existing energy efficient MPR selection schemes. This paper proposes an energy efficient secure MPR selection (ES-MPR) technique that takes into account both energy and security metrics for MPR selection. It introduces the concept of 'Composite Eligibility Index' (CEI) to examine the eligibility of a node for being selected as an MPR. CEI is used in conjunction with willingness to provide distinct selection parameters for Flooding and Routing MPRs. Simulation studies reveal the efficiency of ES-MPR in selection of energy efficient secure and stable MPRs, in turn, prolonging the network operational lifetime.

Underwater wireless communication systems can be useful for underwater environment observation, catastrophe prevention, ocean resources exploration, ocean organism research, vessel sinking exploration, and so on. However, unlike terrestrial wireless communication, underwater wireless communication should consider factors such as long propagation delay, limited transmission capacity, high bit-error rate due to potential loss in power, ambient noise, man-made noise, multi-path, etc., because of the inherent characteristics of water. Thus, in this paper, we propose a suitable media access control(MAC) protocol that applies a combination of the ALOHA MAC protocol and the CSMA/CA MAC protocol to underwater environment. We further propose a mathematical analysis model to evaluate performance. We also verify performance improvement in the proposed scheme in comparison with existing MAC protocols.
