The IEEE 802.16 mobile multi-hop relay (MMR) task group 'j' (TGj) has introduced the multi-hop relaying concept in the IEEE 802.16 Wireless MAN, wherein a relay station (RS) is employed to improve network coverage and capacity. Several RSs can be deployed between a base station and mobile stations, and configured to form a tree-like multi-hop topology. In such architecture, we consider the problem of a path selection through which the mobile station in and outside the coverage can communicate with the base station. In this paper, we propose a new path selection algorithm that ensures more efficient distribution of resources such as bandwidth among the relaying nodes for improving the overall performance of the network. Performance of our proposed scheme is compared with the path selection algorithms based on loss rate and the shortest path algorithm. Based on the simulation results using ns-2, we show our proposal significantly improves the performance on throughput, latency and bandwidth consumption.

모바일 멀티 홉 릴레이는 self-organizing 등의 특성으로 인하여 설치가 용이하며 관리하기 편한 장점이 있지만, 반면에 무선으로 설치되어 자치적으로 운영되는 릴레이 스테이션을 신뢰하기 어려운 보안상 문제점이 있다. 특히 IEEE 802.16j 기반의 무선 멀티 홉 네트워크에서는 일반적인 모바일 멀티 홉 네트워크에서의 보안상 문제점뿐만 아니라, 기존의 IEEE 802.16에서의 특성을 유지해야 하는 요건으로 인하여 발생하는 추가적인 문제점도 존재한다. 본 논문에서는 IEEE 802.16j 기반에서의 모바일 멀티 홉 릴레이에서 가지는 보안상의 문제점들을 해결하기 위하여 혼합형 인증 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 혼합형 인증방법은 중앙 중 인증방법과 분산형 인증방법에 대한 혼합형 방법으로서, 멀티 홉 구조를 갖는 릴레이 스테이션의 네트워크 진입시의 초기 인증 문제, 릴레이 스테이션 간의 홉 간 인증 문제 등의 절차를 포함한다. 또한 혼합형 방식의 효과에 대하여 분석함으로서 모바일 홉 릴레이 네트워크에 제안된 방식이 효율적으로 적용될 수 있음을 보인다. 제안하는 혼합형 인증방식은 IEEE 802.16j 기반의 모바일 멀티 홉 릴레이 네트워크뿐만 아니라 모바일 멀티 홉 구조를 갖는 다른 네트워크에도 적용될 수 있으며, 무선으로 연결되어 자치적으로 운영되는 네트워크에서의 필수적인 보안 문제점인 인증문제를 해결하는데 기여할 것으로 기대된다.

We describe in this paper how to facilitate ad hoc routing with a particle filter in a hostile radio environment for multi-hop wireless ad hoc networks that connect multi-robots. The proposed scheme increases a connection's throughput by exploiting alternative links without going through the procedure of route discovery when link failure happens among multi-robots' networking. The scheme is implemented by using a particle filter to find strongly connected nodes. The filter estimates the probability distribution function in a sample-based manner with N particles. The particles are associated with a weight which represents the probability of the corresponding node to be the node with the best link. At every step of the estimation, the weights of particles are calculated and particles are resampled based on the weights. Since a node with the strongest link status possesses the largest number of particles, we take this node to forward the packets.

Wireless sensor network's value has increased greatly in recent years in the fields of Ubiquitous Computing that function as solution to reduce both the limitation and collision about RFID Technology. The research for wireless sensor network technology is proceeding with the research for various sensor nodes, powerful routing algorithms, securities for data transmission, and valid applications. This paper suggests that we make the new multi-hop routing algorithm using RSS in order to implement enhanced multi-hop routing algorithm. This paper should demonstrate that the routing algorithm using suggested RSS is superior to routing algorithm based on established BSDV(Destination Sequenced Distance Vector).

Network technology has been developed rapidly for digital service in these days. ZigBee, one of the IEEE 802.15.4 protocols, supporting local communication has become the core technology in the wireless network area. In this paper we designed an integrated fire monitoring system using a mobile robot and the ZigBee sensor nodes which are deployed to monitor fires. When a fire breaks out, the image information of the scene of a fire is transmitted by an autonomous mobile robot and we also monitor the current position of the robot. Furthermore, the data around the place where the fire breaks out and the positions of the sensor nodes can be transmitted to a server via the multi-hop communication in the real time.

A ubiquitous network allows all users to access and exchange information of any kind freely at any time, from anywhere, and from any appliance through the use of broadband and mobile access. Bluetooth commincation can provide the missing wireless extension to the heterogeneous network, allowing a more ubiquitous access. In this point of view, the BT specifications define ways for which each BT device can set up multiple connections with neighboring devices to communicate in a multi-hop fashion. this paper provides insights on the Bluetooth technology and on some limitations of the scatternet formations. so that, we describe a new multi-hop routing protocol for the establishment of scatternets. this protocol defines rules for forming a multi-hop topology in two phases. the first phase, topology discovery, concerns the discovery of the node's depth from a root node initiating inquiry process. the second phase forms scatternet topology based on the result of topology discovery.

For disaster exploration and surveillance application, this paper aims to present a novel application of a multi-robot agent based on WSN and to evaluate a multi-hop communication caused by the robotics correspondingly, which are used in the uncertain and unknown subterranean tunnel. A Primary-Scout Multi-Robot System (PS-MRS) was proposed. A chain topology in a subterranean environment was implemented using a trimmed ZigBee2006 protocol stack to build the multi-hop communication network. The ZigBee IC-CC2530 modular circuit was adapted by mounting it on the PS-MRS. A physical experiment based on the strategy of PS-MRS was used in this paper to evaluate the efficiency of multi-hop communication and to realize the delivery of data packets in an unknown and uncertain underground laboratory environment.

An algorithm is proposed to seek a local optimal solution of the network utility maximization problem in a wireless mesh network, where the architecture being considered is an infrastructure/backbone wireless mesh network. The objective is to achieve proportional fairness amongst the end-to-end flows in wireless mesh networks. In order to establish the communication constraints of the flow rates in the network utility maximization problem, we have presented necessary and sufficient conditions for the achievability of the flow rates. Since wireless mesh networks are generally considered as a type of ad hoc networks, similarly as in wireless multi-hop network, the network utility maximization problem in wireless mesh network is a nonlinear nonconvex programming problem. Besides, the gateway/bridge functionalities in mesh routers enable the integration of wireless mesh networks with various existing wireless networks. Thus, the rate optimization problem in wireless mesh networks is more complex than in wireless multi-hop networks.
