Therefore, this paper focuses on the self-organized network collaborative localization of munitions with an aerial three-dimensional(3D) highly-dynamic topographic structure under a satellite denied environment. As for aerial networked munitions, the measurement of munitions is objectively incomplete due to the degenerated and interrupted link of munitions. For this reason, a cluster-oriented collaborative localization method is put forward in this paper. Multidimensional scaling(MDS) was first integrated with a trilateration localization method(TLM) to construct a relative localization algorithm for determining the relative location of a mobile cluster network. The information related to relative velocity was then combined into a collaborative localization framework to devise a TLM-vMDS algorithm. Finally, an iterative refinement algorithm based on scaling by majorizing a complicated function(SMACOF) was employed to effectively eliminate the influence of incomplete link observation on localization accuracy. Compared with the currently available advanced algorithms, the proposed TLM-vMDS algorithm achieves higher localization accuracy and faster convergence for a cluster of extensively networked munitions, and also offers better numerical stability and robustness for highspeed motion models.展开更多

Mobile ad hoc networks is highly vulnerable to attacks due to the open medium, dynamically changing network topology, cooperative algorithms, and lack of centralized monitoring and management point. The traditional way of protecting networks with firewalls and encryption software is no longer sufficient and effective for those features. A distributed intrusion detection approach based on timed automata is given. A cluster-based detection scheme is presented, where periodically a node is elected as the monitor node for a cluster. These monitor nodes can not only make local intrusion detection decisions, but also cooperatively take part in global intrusion detection. And then the timed automata is constructed by the way of manually abstracting the correct behaviours of the node according to the routing protocol of dynamic source routing (DSR). The monitor nodes can verify the behaviour of every nodes by timed automata, and validly detect real-time attacks without signatures of intrusion or trained data. Compared with the architecture where each node is its own IDS agent, the approach is much more efficient while maintaining the same level of effectiveness. Finally, the intrusion detection method is evaluated through simulation experiments.展开更多

In contrast with the traditional self-organized public-key management, the average certificates paths get more short, the authentication passing rate gets more high and the most important is that the bidirectional trust based model satisfys the trust re quirement of hosts better.展开更多

Those features make data lost easily as well as multicasting inefficient and unreliable. Moreover, Efficient and reliable multicast in wireless ad hoe network is a difficult issue. It is a major challenge to transmission delays and packet losses due to link changes of a multicast tree at the provision of high delivery ratio for each packet transmission in wireless ad hoe network environment. In this paler, we propose and evaluate Reliable Adaptive Multicast Protocol (RAMP) based on a relay node concept. Relay nodes are placed along the multieast tree. Data recovery is done between relay nodes. RAMP supports a reliable multicasting suitable for mobile ad hoe network by reducing the number of packet retransmissions. We compare RAMP with SRM (Scalable Reliable Multicast). Simulation results show that the RAMP has high delivery ratio and low end-to-end delay for packet transmsission.展开更多

Firstly, this paper introduces a new concept called channel utilization percentage (CUP), which is for measuring the contention level of different channels in a node’s neighborhood, and deduces its optimal value for determining whether a channel is overloaded or not. Then, a metric parameter named channel selection metric (CSM) is designed, which actually reffects not only the channel status but also corresponding node’s capacity to seize it. JCACR evaluates channel assignment by CSM, performs a local optimization by assigning each node a channel with the smaller CSM value, and changes the working channel dynamically when the channel is overloaded. Therefore, the network load balancing can be achieved. In addition, simulation shows that, when compared with the protocol of weighted cumulative expected transfer time (WCETT), the new protocol can improve the network throughput and reduce the end-to-end average delay with fewer overheads.展开更多

By using multiple paths which can be repaired by themselves to transmit packets alternately, the network's load is balanced, the link state in the network can be checked in time, the number of the times the route discovery mechanism starts is decreased. If only one route which will be broken can be used to transmit the packets, the route discovery mechanism is restarted.The algorithm is implemented on the basis of dynamic source routing (DSR). The effect of MSSRR on lifetime of the access from the source to the destination and the overhead is discussed. Compared with the performance of DSR,it can be seen that the algorithm can improve the performance of the network obviously and the overhead almost does not increase if the average hop count is larger.展开更多

The routing protocol has a crucial impact on the network performance in battlefields. Link reliability based hybrid routing (LRHR) is proposed, which is a novel hybrid routing protocol, for tactical MANET. Contrary to the traditional single path routing strategy, multiple paths are established between a pair of source-destination nodes. In the hybrid routing strategy, the rate of topological change provides a natural mechanism for switching dynamically between table-driven and on-demand routing. The simulation results indicate that the performances of the protocol in packet delivery ratio, routing overhead, and average end-to-end delay are better than the conventional routing protocol.展开更多

Although extensive efforts have already been devoted to providing optimization based distributed congestion elusion strategy for efficient bandwidth utilization and fair allocation in both wired and wireless networks,a common assumption therein is the fixed link capacities,which will unfortunately limit the application scope in mobile ad hoc networks where channels keep changing. In this paper,an effective congestion elusion strategy is presented explicitly based on ant colony algorithm for mobile ad hoc networks, which will explore the optimal route between two nodes promptly,meanwhile forecast congestion state of the link. Accordingly,a new path will be found rapidly to have the flow spread around to relieve the congestion degree. Compared with OLSR,the strategy proposed will greatly reduce the packet loss ratio and the average end-to-end delay at the same time,which illustrate that it will make use of networking resource effectively.展开更多

It presents a distributed QoS multicast routing protocol (DQMRP). The proof of correctness and complenty analysis of the DQMRP are also given. Simulation results show that the multicast tree optimized by DQMRP is better than other protocols and is fitter for the network situations with frequently changed status and the realtime multimedia application. It is an available approach to multicast routing decision with multiple QoS constraints.展开更多

文摘A critical challenge for mobile ad hoc networks is the design of efficient routing protocols which are able to provide high bandwidth utilization and desired fairness in mobile wireless environment without any fixed communication establishments. Although extensive efforts have already been devoted to providing optimization based distributed congestion elusion strategy for efficient bandwidth utilization and fair allocation in both wired and wireless networks,a common assumption therein is the fixed link capacities,which will unfortunately limit the application scope in mobile ad hoc networks where channels keep changing. In this paper,an effective congestion elusion strategy is presented explicitly based on ant colony algorithm for mobile ad hoc networks, which will explore the optimal route between two nodes promptly,meanwhile forecast congestion state of the link. Accordingly,a new path will be found rapidly to have the flow spread around to relieve the congestion degree. Compared with OLSR,the strategy proposed will greatly reduce the packet loss ratio and the average end-to-end delay at the same time,which illustrate that it will make use of networking resource effectively.

文摘The routing protocols are paramount to guarantee the Quality of Service(QoS)for Flying Ad Hoc Networks(FANETs).However,they still face several challenges owing to high mobility and dynamic topology.This paper mainly focuses on the adaptive routing protocol and proposes a Three Dimensional Q-Learning(3DQ)based routing protocol to guarantee the packet delivery ratio and improve the QoS.In 3DQ routing,we propose a Q-Learning based routing decision scheme,which contains a link-state prediction module and routing decision module.The link-state prediction module allows each Unmanned Aerial Vehicle(UAV)to predict the link-state of Neighboring UAVs(NUs),considering their Three Dimensional mobility and packet arrival.Then,UAV can produce routing decisions with the help of the routing decision module considering the link-state.We evaluate the various performance of 3DQ routing,and simulation results demonstrate that 3DQ can improve packet delivery ratio,goodput and delay of baseline protocol at most 71.36%,89.32%and 83.54%in FANETs over a variety of communication scenarios.
文摘For wireless ad hoc networks simulation, node's mobility pattern and traffic pattern are two key elements. A new simulation model is presented based on the virtual reality collision detection algorithm in obstacle environment, and the model uses the path planning method to avoid obstacles and to compute the node's moving path. Obstacles also affect node's signal propagation. Considering these factors, this study implements the mobility model for wireless ad hoc networks. Simulation results show that the model has a significant impact on the performance of protocols.

文摘Quality of service (QoS) routing and multicasting protocols in ad hoc networks are face with the challenge of delivering data to destinations through multihop routes in the presence of node movements and topology changes. The multicast routing problem with multiple QoS constraints is discussed, which may deal with the delay, bandwidth and cost metrics, and describes a network model for researching the ad hoc networks QoS multicast routing problem. It presents a distributed QoS multicast routing protocol (DQMRP). The proof of correctness and complenty analysis of the DQMRP are also given. Simulation results show that the multicast tree optimized by DQMRP is better than other protocols and is fitter for the network situations with frequently changed status and the realtime multimedia application. It is an available approach to multicast routing decision with multiple QoS constraints.

文摘The paper proposes a decentralized concurrent transmission strategy in shared channels based on an incomplete information game in Ad Hoc networks.Based on the nodal channel quality,the game can work out a channel gain threshold,which decides the candidates for taking part in the concurrent transmission.The utility formula is made for maximizing the overall throughput based on channel quality variation.For an achievable Bayesian Nash equilibrium(BNE) solution,this paper further prices the selfish players in utility functions for attempting to improve the channel gain one-sidedly.Accordingly,this game allows each node to distributedly decide whether to transmit concurrently with others depending on the Nash equilibrium(NE).Besides,to make the proposed game practical,this paper next presents an efficient particle swarm optimization(PSO) model to fasten the otherwise very slow convergence procedure due to the large computational complexity.Numerical results show the proposed approach is feasible to increase concurrent transmission opportunities for active nodes and the convergence can be swiftly obtained with a few of iteration times by the proposed PSO algorithm.
文摘A complex threshold key management framework has been proposed, which canaddress the challenges posed by the unique nature of Ad hoc network. Depending on the cooperation ofthe controller and participation nodes, this scheme should be efficient in the operationenvironmental alteration and toleianl faults of node, which take the advantages of the benefits ofboth key management approaches and alleviate their limitations. For the cooperation of thecontroller and participation nodes, a (t, n) threshold Elliptic curve sign-encryption scheme withthe specified receiver also has been proposed. Using this threshold sign-encryption scheme, the keymanagement distributes the trust between a controller and a set of participation nodes.
