Abstract

A Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) is a collection of wireless mobile nodes dynamically self-organizing in arbitrary and temporary network topologies without the use of any existing network infrastructure. The AODV (Ad Hoc On-Demand Distance Vector) Protocol is one of the typical reactive routing protocols, in that mobile nodes initiate routing activities only in the presence of data packets in need of a route. In this paper, we focus upon the local repair mechanism of AODV. When a link is broken, the upstream node of the broken link repairs the route to the destination by initiating a local route discovery process. The process involves the flooding of AODV control messages in every node within a radius of the length from the initiating node to the destination. In this paper, we propose an efficient local repair scheme for AODV called AFLRS (AODV-based Fast Local Repair Scheme). AFLRS utilizes the existing routing information in the intermediate nodes which have been on the active route to the destination before a link break occurs. AFLRS can reduce the flooding range of AODV control messages and the route recovery time because it can repair route through the intermediate nodes. For the performance evaluation of the proposed AFLRS, we have simulated the local repair mechanisms by using NS2 and AODV-UU. The performance results show that AFLRS can achieve faster route recovery than the local repair mechanism of AODV.

모바일 애드 혹 네트워크 (MANET)는 무선 모바일 노드들이 하부구조(infrastructure)없이 동적으로 네트워크 토폴로지를 구성하는 것을 의미한다. AODV(Ad Hoc On-Demand Distance Vector) 프로토콜은 대표적인 요구기반 라우팅 프로토콜로서, 모바일 노드는 전송할 데이타가 있을 경우에만 라우팅 경로를 찾게 된다. 본 논문에서는 AODV의 지역 경로 복구 기법에 대해 다룬다 라우팅 링크가 단절되면 단절된 링크를 발견한 상위 노드는 목적지 노드까지의 라우팅 경로를 지역 경로 탐색과정을 통해 복구하게 된다. 이 과정에서 AODV 제어 메시지가 단절 경로의 상위노드로부터 목적지 노드까지를 반경으로 하는 지역에 퍼지게 된다. 본 논문에서는 AFLRS(AODV-based Fast Local Repair Scheme)이라고 하는 AODV를 위한 효율적인 지역 경로 복구 기법을 제안한다. AFLRS는 경로 단절이 일어나기 전에 라우팅 노드들이 유지하고 있던 라우팅 정보를 이용하므로 AODV 제어 메시지의 플러딩 범위를 줄이고 경로 복구 시간을 줄일 수 있다. 제안된 AFLRS의 성능평가를 위해 지역경로 기법들을 NS2와 AODV-UU 시뮬레이터를 이용하여 시뮬레이션 하였으며 실험결과에서 AFLRS가 AODV에서의 경로복구기법 보다 빠르게 경로 복구를 할 수 있음을 보인다.
