ZBMRP: A Zone Based Multicast Routing Protocol for Mobile Ad Hoc Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we propose a Multicast Routing Protocol termed ZBMRP (Zone Based Multicast Routing Protocol) for Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs). ZBMRP applies on-demand procedures to dynamically establish mesh-based multicast routing zones along the path from the multicast source node to the multicast receivers. Control packet flooding is employed inside multicast zones, thus multicast overhead is vastly reduced, and good scalability can be achieved. It will also be easier to secure multicast routing. ZBMRP fits well for MANETs where bandwidth is limited, topology changes frequently, power is constrained and security problem is serious. Simulation results are presented to support our claim.

Intuitionistic fuzzy logic for adaptive energy efficient routing in mobile ad-hoc networks
In recent years, mobile ad-hoc networks have been used widely due to advances in wireless technology. These networks are formed in any environment that is needed without a fixed infrastructure or centralized management. Mobile ad-hoc networks have some characteristics and advantages such as wireless medium access, multi-hop routing, low cost development, dynamic topology and etc. In these netwo...
متن کاملImproving Quality of Service Routing in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks Using OLSR
Mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) are constructed by mobile nodes without access point. Since MANET has certain constraints, including power shortages, an unstable wireless environment and node mobility, more power-efficient and reliable routing protocols are needed. The OLSR protocol is an optimization of the classical link state algorithm. OLSR introduces an interesting concept, the multipoint r...

This study presents a forwarding nodes selection scheme for zone-based multicast routing protocols to reduce transmission routing control overhead. The feasibility of the proposed scheme is demonstrated over mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs), and compared with the multicast zone routing protocol (MZR) in terms of the routing control overhead and packet delivery ratio. In this work, the proposed s...
متن کاملMZR: a multicast protocol for mobile ad hoc networks
This paper proposes a new multicast protocol for Mobile Ad Hoc networks, called the Multicast routing protocol based on Zone Routing (MZR). MZR is a source-initiated ondemand protocol, in which a multicast delivery tree is created using a concept called the zone routing mechanism. It is a source tree based protocol and does not depend on any underlying unicast protocol. The protocol’s reaction ...
متن کاملA New Routing Algorithm for Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks based on Glowworm Swarm Optimization Algorithm
Vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) are a particular type of Mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) in which the vehicles are considered as nodes. Due to rapid topology changing and frequent disconnection makes it difficult to design an efficient routing protocol for routing data among vehicles. In this paper, a new routing protocol based on glowworm swarm optimization algorithm is provided. Using the g...
