Heterogeneous Mobility Models and Their Impact on Data Dissemination in Mobile Ad-hoc Networks

چکیده
When analyzing dissemination protocols in mobile ad-hoc networks the underlying mobility model is an important factor because it strongly influences the performance of these protocols. So far most of the research only dealt with homogeneous mobility models like the very common Random Waypoint Mobility Model and the Random Walk Mobility Model. In this paper we introduce a new model, the Area Graph-based Mobility Model, which considers the major characteristics of realistic scenarios like their heterogeneity. By analyzing the results of experiments using different broadcast protocols and by comparing our model to the Random Waypoint Mobility Model we examine the characteristics of the Area Graph-based Mobility Model. Furthermore we show, that in heterogeneous scenarios you should use adaptive broadcast protocols, otherwise an efficient dissemination in areas with differing topologies and densities is not possible.

Energy Efficient Routing in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks by Using Honey Bee Mating Optimization
Mobile Ad hoc networks (MANETs) are composed of mobile stations communicating through wireless links, without any fixed backbone support. In these networks, limited power energy supply, and frequent topology changes caused by node mobility, makes their routing a challenging problem. TORA is one of the routing protocols that successfully copes with the nodes’ mobility side effects, but it do...

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...
