Insights into the Routing Stability of a Multi-hop Wireless Testbed - (Invited Paper)

چکیده
By nature, links in multi-hop wireless networks have an unpredictable behavior, which directly affects the stability of routes. In this paper, we investigate the stability of the network by addressing some interesting questions related to the presence of both dominant and subdominant routes between nodes, in a real deployment. We focus on the persistence of the dominant route and the first four sub-dominant routes. The persistence is computed as the percentage of time that a given route is used. We note that source-destination pairs mostly use the dominant route and two sub-dominant routes to communicate, but with a low persistence. We also investigate the number of hops crossed by these routes and their impact on the stability. It turns out that the larger the number of hops, the larger the number of sub-dominant routes. However, when exceeding four hops, the notion of dominance fades.

متن کاملBroadcast Routing in Wireless Ad-Hoc Networks: A Particle Swarm optimization Approach
While routing in multi-hop packet radio networks (static Ad-hoc wireless networks), it is crucial to minimize power consumption since nodes are powered by batteries of limited capacity and it is expensive to recharge the device. This paper studies the problem of broadcast routing in radio networks. Given a network with an identified source node, any broadcast routing is considered as a directed...
متن کاملAn Adaptive LEACH-based Clustering Algorithm for Wireless Sensor Networks
LEACH is the most popular clastering algorithm in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). However, it has two main drawbacks, including random selection of cluster heads, and direct communication of cluster heads with the sink. This paper aims to introduce a new centralized cluster-based routing protocol named LEACH-AEC (LEACH with Adaptive Energy Consumption), which guarantees to generate balanced cl...
متن کاملEnergy Efficiency and Reliability in Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks Using Cuckoo Optimizer Algorithm
Energy efficiency and reliability are widely understood to be one of the dominant considerations for Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks (UWSNs). In this paper, in order to maintain energy efficiency and reliability in a UWSN, Cuckoo Optimization Algorithm (COA) is adopted that is a combination of three techniques of geo-routing, multi-path routing, and Duty-Cycle mechanism. In the proposed alg...
متن کاملA multi-hop PSO based localization algorithm for wireless sensor networks
A sensor network consists of a large number of sensor nodes that are distributed in a large geographic environment to collect data. Localization is one of the key issues in wireless sensor network researches because it is important to determine the location of an event. On the other side, finding the location of a wireless sensor node by the Global Positioning System (GPS) is not appropriate du...
