Location Management Handoff Overhead in Hierarchically Organized Mobile Ad hoc Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
Control overhead in a mobile ad hoc network may be reduced through hierarchical routing. However, to facilitate packet forwarding in a hierarchically organized network, each datagram must specify the hierarchical address of the destination. Maintaining and acquiring hierarchical addresses represents a location management (LM) problem and incurs control overhead in addition to that of a routing protocol. This paper considers the LM overhead due to handoff. That is, the transfer of LM data due to node mobility and volatility of the clustered hierarchy. It is shown that handoff overhead is only polylogarithmic in the node count.

متن کاملLocation management for hierarchically organized mobile ad hoc networks
A geography-based grid location service (GLS), proposed elsewhere, has resulted in a scalable location management service for mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) where packet forwarding decisions are based on geographic position. A similarly scalable location management strategy has been devised for MANETs that employ hierarchical link state routing. Both approaches employ hierarchical principles ...
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...

A Mobile Ad hoc NETwork (MANET) is a collection of wireless mobile computers forming a temporary network without any existing wire line infrastructure. Searching for feasible paths, or routing, is very challenging in mobile ad hoc networks because of frequent topology changes caused by users’ mobility. Location tracking is required by some applications and also provides facility for routing imp...
