A Prediction-based Link Availability Estimation for Mobile Ad Hoc Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
-One critical issue for routing in mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) is how to select a reliable path that can last longer since mobility may cause radio links to break frequently. To answer this question, a criterion that can judge path reliability is needed. The reliability of a path depends on the availability of the links1 constituting the path. However, how to measure link availability to answer the above question has not been addressed adequately in the literature. In this paper, a prediction-based link availability estimation is introduced and verified through computer simulations. This estimation algorithm can be used to develop a metric for path selection in terms of path reliability, which can improve the network performance as to be shown by the simulation results. Keywords--MANET, routing metric, path reliability, link availability and mobility.

Improving 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...

Each system has its own definition of reliability. Reliability in mobile ad-hoc networks (MANET) could be interpreted as, the probability of reaching a message from a source node to destination, successfully. The variability and volatility of the MANET configuration makes typical reliability methods (e.g. reliability block diagram) inappropriate. It is because, no single structure or configurat...
