Recently, MANET(Mobile Ad-hoc Network) is developing increasingly in the wireless network. MANET has weakness because phases change frequently and MANET doesn't have middle management system. Every node which consists of MANET has to perform data forwarding, but traceback is not reliable if these nodes do malicious action owing to attack. It also is not easy to find location of attacker when it is attacked as moving of nodes. In this paper, we propose a hierarchical-based traceback method that reduce waste of memory and can manage path information efficiently. In order to manage trace path information and reduce using resource in the cluster head after network is formed to cluster, method which recomposes the path efficiently is proposed. Proposed method in this paper can reduce path trace failure rate remarkably due to moving of nodes. It can also reduce the cost for traceback and time it takes to collect information.

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.

A mobile ad-hoc network is an autonomous collection of wireless mobile nodes that organizes a temporary network without any network infrastructure. Due to node mobility, it is a challenging task to maintain the network topology. In this paper, we propose a stable clustering algorithm that uses node mobility for cluster formation. In the proposed algorithm, the node mobility is measured by counting the number of nodes entering into/leaving from its transmission range. The node having the lowest mobility is selected as a cluster head. For topology maintenance with reduced control overhead, the cluster head adaptively controls the broadcasting period of hello message to the measured node mobility. Through computer simulations, it is verified that the proposed algorithm outperforms previous clustering algorithms in terms of control overhead, the rate of node mobility changes and the number of cluster head changes.

In mobile ad hoc networks, packet loss is unavoidable due to MAC contention, link failure or the inherent characteristics of wireless link. Since TCP relies on the timely reception of TCP ACK packets to progress the transmission of the TCP DATA packets, ACK loss obviously affects the performance due to two main problems: (a) Frequent occurrence of spurious retransmissions caused by timeout events and (b) impairment of the fast retransmit mechanism caused by the lack of a sufficient number of duplicate ACK packets. In particular, since most reactive routing protocols force the packets buffered over a path to be discarded while performing a route recovery, the performance degradation becomes more serious due to such ACK loss. In this paper, therefore, TCP with two piggybacking schemes (called TCP-pgy) is proposed in order to resolve the above-mentioned problems over reactive routing protocols. Through extensive simulations using the ns-2 simulator, we prove that our proposed schemes contribute to TCP performance improvements.

Ad-hoc 네트워크는 기존의 유선 네트워크와 달리 여러 가지 제약을 갖고 있다. 그 중에서 가장 큰 제약은 배터리에 저장된 한정된 에너지에 의존해서 동작한다는 것이다. 어떤 모바일 노드가 배터리에 저장된 에너지를 모두 소비하게 되면, 그 노드는 더 이상 네트워크에 참여할 수 없게 된다. 이러한 현상이 증가하게 되면 네트워크가 두 개 이상의 서브 네트워크로 분할되는 문제가 발생할 수 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해서 라우팅을 통하여 에너지 소비를 좀 더 효율적으로 네트워크로 분산시키기 위한 RDRP(Request Delay Routing Protocol)와 MMRP(Max Min Routing Protocol) 프로토콜들이 제안되었다. 본 논문에서는 에너지 상태에 따라 플러딩(Flooding)을 지연시키는 RDRP 방법에 현재 형성된 라우팅 경로까지 함께 고려한 EP-AODV(AODV considering Energy and Path)를 제안한다. 또한, NS-2(Network Simulator 2) 시뮬레이터를 이용한 성능 평가를 통하여 본 논문에서 제안된 프로토콜이 좀 더 에너지 소비를 네트워크 전체로 효율적으로 분산시킨다는 것을 보일 것이다.

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.

An Ad-hoc network which is composed of mobile nodes only should be able to distribute the traffic load evenly to the network so that the network could utilize its resources effectively However, most of researches have been concentrated in channel establishment level, not in channel reestablishment level. In this paper, the existing AODV routing protocol has been modified and upgraded to disperse the traffic load more quickly A node which uses the modified AODV routing protocol proposed in this paper broadcasts a control message to adjacent nodes, which announces congestion around the node. In order to verify the performance improvement of the proposed protocol, simulation study has been carried out by using ns2 simulator.

Ad hoc networks are groups of mobile hosts without any fixed infrastructure. Frequent changes in network topology owing to node mobility make these networks very difficult to manage. Therefore, enhancing the reliability of routing paths in ad hoc networks gets more important. In this paper, we propose a ZRP(Zone Routing Protocol)-based route discovery scheme that can not only reduce the total hops of routing path, but Improve security through authentications between two nodes. And to solve the problem in maintenance of routing paths owing to frequent changes of the network topology, we adopt a query control mechanism. The effectiveness of our scheme is shown by simulation methods.

The purpose of this research is to extend Ad-hoc network system lifetime with the proposed routing protocol which has considered hop lifetimes of the nodes while guaranteeing QoS in the establishment process of Ad-hoc network communication paths. Based on another power aware routing system that proposed in the advanced research [1], we are proposing an alternative power aware routing system in which nodes' hop lifetimes are compared in order to extend the lifetime of an Ad-hoc network system and delay factors have been considered for the assurance of QoS. The research of the routing protocol in this paper, which aims to maximize the system survival time considering power consumption status during the path searching in MANET and pursues the mechanism that controls hop delays for the same reason, can be applied to the study of WSN. The study concerning such phenomena is essential so that the proposed protocol has been simulated and verified with NS-2 in Linux system focusing on the lifetimes of the hops of the nodes. Commercialization of smart devices and arrival of the ubiquitous age has brought about the world where all the people and things are connected with networks. Since the proposed power aware method and the hop delay control mechanism used to find the adequate communication paths in MANET which mainly uses batteries or in WSN, they can largely contribute to the lifetime extension of the network system by reducing power consumptions when utilized for the communications attempts among soldiers during military operation, disaster areas, temporary events or exhibitions, mobile phone shadow areas, home networks, in-between vehicle communications and sense networks, etc. This paper presents the definitions and some advantages regarding the proposed outing protocol that sustain and extend the lifetime of the networks.

Efficient service discovery mechanism is a crucial feature for the usability of a wireless ad-hoc network. A wireless ad-hoc network is a temporal network formed by a collection of wireless mobile nodes without the aid of any existing network infrastructure or centralized administration. We propose an efficient service discovery mechanism using non-disjoint multi-path routing protocol for a wireless ad-hoc network. Our scheme has advantages of not only multi-path routing protocol but also cross-layer service discovery. By simulation, we showed that faster route recovery is possible by maintaining multiple routing paths in each node, and the route maintenance overhead can be reduced by limiting the number of multiple routing paths and by maintaining link/node non-disjoint multi-path.
