Fast Flooding in Power Save Mode of IEEE 802.11 DCF Based Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

چکیده
We propose Fast Flooding in Power Save Mode (FFPSM), a modification of IEEE 802.11 power save mode operation for Mobile Ad hoc NETworks (MANET). The previous works for the power save mode operation usually focused on shortening the duration of the awake state to minimize the power consumption of mobile nodes. We observed that the longer sleeping period results in seriously long delivery latency because the packets can move forward only one hop for a fixed interval. Our FFPSM scheme allows the flooding packets to be forwarded several hops in a transmission period. Each node propagates the announcements for next flooding to nodes of several hops away, thus the packets can travel multiple hops during one interval. Simulation results show that the proposed approach significantly reduces the end-to-end delay of flooding without extra energy consumption.

Performance modeling and evaluation of IEEE 802.11 IBSS power save mode
The IEEE 802.11 standard defines a power management algorithm for wireless LAN. In the power management for Independent Basic Service Set (IBSS), time is divided into Beacon Intervals (BIs) and each BI is divided into an Announcement Traffic Indication Message (ATIM) window and a data window. The stations that have successfully transmitted an ATIM frame within the ATIM window compete to transmi...

The IEEE 802.11 standard is the most popular Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol for wireless local area networks. However, in an ad-hoc environment, the Point Coordination Function (PCF), defined in the standard, cannot be readily used. This is due to the fact that there is no central authority to act as a Point Coordinator (PC). Peer-to-peer ad-hoc mode in the IEEE 802.11 standard only imple...

متن کاملPerformance of Handovers between NEMO and Mobile Ad Hoc Networks Using Buffering
A MANEMO node is an IP-based mobile node that has interface attachments to both a mobile network, using Network Mobility (NEMO), and a Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET). While communicating with a correspondent node in the Internet, the MANEMO node should use the best possible path. Therefore, as conditions change, a handover between NEMO and MANET is desirable. This paper describes the operation o...

In the IEEE 802.11 Power Save Mode (PSM) specified for Independent Basic Service Set (IBSS), time is divided into beacon intervals. At the beginning of each beacon interval, each station in the power save mode periodically wakes up for a duration called announcement traffic indication message (ATIM) window. The stations that have successfully transmitted ATIM frame within the ATIM window will c...
