Neighbour Discovery in Active Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
Active networks consist of traditional routers and active network nodes (ANN). Some aspects of active networks operation, e.g. security and interoperability, require each ANN to know its neighbour ANNs. However, neighbour ANNs are not directly connected, i.e. there may be one or more plain routers between them. This makes the discovery of neighbour ANNs a non trivial task and fundamentally different from physical neighbour discovery. In this paper we present a network protocol for automatic discovery of neighbour ANNs.

Cognitive radio networks operation relies on the capability to gather information about the surrounding environment, as regards both internal network status (presence and capabilities of other devices belonging to the same network) and external systems potentially coexisting with the cognitive network. In particular, retrieving information at the local level is a function required to all wirele...
متن کاملCollective Neighbour Discovery in Wireless Sensor Network
Neighbour discovery is one of the imperative elements of wireless sensor network which discerns close by nodes so that they can reciprocate information and collaborate. In this paper collective neighbour discovery is proposed to reduce latency period and accomplish the discovery more efficiently. To achieve this purpose each node will be active during recommended neighbours’ active time to atta...

A Sensor network generally has a large number of sensor nodes that are deployed at some audited site. In most sensor networks the nodes are static. Nevertheless, node connectivity is subject to changes because of disruptions in wireless communication, transmission power changes, or loss of synchronization between neighbouring nodes, so there is a need to maintain synchronization between the nei...
