A Wireless Ad Hoc Routing protocol Based on Physical Layer Characteristics

Lin, Sie-Wei 24 June 2003 (has links)
In recent years, there has been a growing interest in wireless ad hoc network. One of the major issues in wireless network is developing efficient routing protocol. Based on the concept of designing protocol model such as OSI model, the designers distilled the process of transmitting data to its most fundamental elements and identified which networking functions had related uses and collected those functions into discrete groups that became the layers. It is not suitable to design wireless ad hoc routing protocol based on OSI model conception because the OSI model is developed from the view point of wired network and there are many different characteristics between wired and wireless environment. The main different characteristics between wired and wireless are the mobility of mobile host and the transmission medium. Such differences have great effect on network performance. Due to the differences between wired and wireless characteristics, we present a comprehensive conception of designing wireless ad hoc routing protocol. In this context, we provide a wireless ad hoc routing protocol based on physical layer characteristics, ex: bit error rate, robust link. Our routing protocol will find out a route in good transmission environment and it is efficient to improve network throughput. Furthermore, our routing protocol will decrease the number of route request packets, the amount of retransmissions, link breakage rate, and increase throughput.
