چکیده

Several routing protocols for mobile ad hoc networks work efficiently only in bidirectional networks. Unidirectional links may exist in a real network due to variation in transmission power of different nodes, noise or other signal propagation phenomena, and heterogeneity in transmission hardware of nodes in the network. We introduce a sub-layer called Sub Routing Layer, SRL, between the network and the MAC layer to provide a bidirectional abstraction of the unidirectional network to the routing protocols. We present a scalable and efficient way to provide this abstraction by finding and maintaining multi-hop reverse routes to each unidirectional link. We simulate SRL and a modified version of AODV that uses SRL to route packets in unidirectional network. We observed that with SRL, the packet delivery of AODV in unidirectional networks increases substantially. Further our simulations indicate that reverse routes are often only a few hops long and hence the overhead of using SRL is very low.

Mobile Wireless Enhanced Routing Protocol in Adhoc Networks

Adhoc network consists of peer-to-peer communicating nodes that are highly mobile. As such, an ad-hoc network lacks infrastructure and the topology of the network changes dynamically. The task of routing data from a source to a destination in such a network is challenging. Both proactive and reactive routing protocols prove to be inefficient under these circumstances. Most of the ad-hoc protoco...

Bidirectional Multiwavelength Ring Networks: Performance Analysis and Experimental Studies

High-capacity multiwavelength ring networks with bidirectional WDM add/drop multiplexer (WADM) is analyzed and demonstrated. All channels can be added/ dropped independently in each direction. The capacity of a bidirectional ring is found to be approximately twice that of an unidirectional ring. An eight-wavelength WADM is demonstrated for a data rate of 10 Gb/s per channel, providing an overal...

Bidirectional LSTM Networks for Improved Phoneme Classification and Recognition

In this paper, we carry out two experiments on the TIMIT speech corpus with bidirectional and unidirectional Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) networks. In the first experiment (framewise phoneme classification) we find that bidirectional LSTM outperforms both unidirectional LSTM and conventional Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs). In the second (phoneme recognition) we find that a hybrid BLSTM-HMM s...

Towards Online-Recognition with Deep Bidirectional LSTM Acoustic Models

Online-Recognition requires the acoustic model to provide posterior probabilities after a limited time delay given the online input audio data. This necessitates unidirectional modeling and the standard solution is to use unidirectional long short-term memory (LSTM) recurrent neural networks (RNN) or feedforward neural networks (FFNN). It is known that bidirectional LSTMs are more powerful and ...

A Witness-Aided Routing Protocol for Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks with Unidirectional Links

Mobile ad hoc networks may exhibit unidirectional links due to the nature of wireless communication. Presence of unidirectional links interferes with the control ow of many existing unicast routing protocols for such networks, which adversely eeects their performance and limits their applicability. In this paper, we present a new protocol designed to support unicast routing over both bidirectio...
