Book excerpt: Wireless multi-hop networks have become an important part of many modern communication systems. Opportunistic routing aims to overcome the deficiencies of conventional routing on wireless multi-hop networks, by specifically utilizing wireless broadcast opportunities and receiver diversity. Opportunistic routing algorithms, which are specifically optimized to incorporate into the routing decisions a model of wireless transmission, take advantage of scheduling, multi-user, and receiver diversity gains and result in significant reduction in the expected cost of routing per packet. The ability of the algorithm to take advantage of the aspects of wireless transmission, however, depends on the scalability and the additional overhead associated with the opportunistic routing as well as the availability of side information regarding wireless channel statistics, topology, etc. This monograph sheds light on the performance gains associated with incorporating into the routing strategy the nature of wireless transmission. This monograph first provides an overview of various opportunistic distance-vector algorithms that have been developed to incorporate wireless transmission and routing opportunities. Furthermore, an optimal opportunistic distance metric is proposed whose performance is examined against the performance of several routing algorithms from the literature. The performance is examined first in analytical examples, then via simulation to identify the strengths of the optimal opportunist routing algorithm. To allow for a scalable and distributed solution, the distributed computation of this optimal distance-metric is provided. The performance of a distributed implementation of the optimal opportunistic routing algorithm is also examined via simulation. In addition to the construction of the opportunistic schemes in centralized and distributed fashions, this monograph also addresses how learning the wireless medium can be efficiently incorporated in the structure of routing algorithm. Finally, this monograph examines the dynamic congestion-based distance metric and its performance against other congestion aware solutions in the literature.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Opportunistic Routing (OR) has been investigated in recent years as a way to increase the performance of Wireless Mesh Networks. In OR, in contrast to traditional routing, instead of pre-selecting a single specific node to be the next-hop as a forwarder for a packet, an ordered set of nodes, called candidates, is selected. When the current node transmits a packet, all the candidates that successfully receive it will coordinate with each other to determine which one will actually forward it, while the others will simply discard the packet. This book is a research approach to OR. Analytic models and simulation are used to investigate main issues in OR. These include practical ones, as the selection of candidates, and theoretical ones, as the maximum performance that may be achieved using OR.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: Wireless mesh network is usually used to provide Internet access to communities or citywide. Opportunistic Routing (OR) exploits overheard packets in a wireless network and has been proven to be effective for wireless mesh networks. However, the existing OR protocols cannot meet all the requirements for high-speed, multi-rate wireless mesh networks, including- running on commodity Wi-Fi interface, low complexity, supporting multiple link layer data rates, and exploiting partial packets. We propose POR, a new Opportunistic Routing protocol that is the first OR protocol to meet all the critical requirements in practical wireless mesh networks. POR forwards individual packets and does not forward a packet if it has been already received correctly by the downstream nodes according to the feedback sent by the downstream nodes. The individual packet forwarding of POR makes it more friendly with popular protocols such as TCP than existing opportunistic routing protocols that requires packet batching. POR incorporates a block-based partial packet recovery scheme by retransmitting corrupted parts of the packet. POR employs a multi-hop link rate adaptation scheme to adapt to the wireless channel conditions by selectively probing rates that are potentially better with small dummy packets. POR also employs a new path metric that considers the cost in sending feedbacks as well as the capability of the nodes to select appropriate rates to track the channel conditions. POR is a software-only solution. We implement POR within the Click modular routing and our experiments in a 16-node wireless testbed confirm that POR achieves significantly better performance than the compared protocols. We run TCP on top of POR and results show that POR can achieve higher TCP throughput than the compared protocol, which is the first demonstration of TCP on top of any OR protocols.

This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Routing in wireless sensor, mobile ad-hoc, and vehicular networks is a crucial operation having significantly attracted scientists' attention during the past years. Opportunistic routing, however, is a novel and promising approach, which is still an ongoing research paradigm. The purpose of opportunistic routing protocols is to increase the reliability of delivering data packets to their destination by utilizing the broadcast nature of wireless networks and selecting a set of nodes, instead of only one, as potential next-hop candidates. Apart from the reliability, security and trustworthiness of communications is also a challenging task. More specifically, almost all traditional and opportunistic routing protocols require cooperation of all network nodes to complete the routing process. However, some nodes in the network may be compromised and avoid collaboration with others due to various selfish or malicious motivations. The focus of this thesis is on modeling security challenges and developing trust-based opportunistic routing protocols. This way, communication between nodes will not only benefit from the reliability of opportunistic routing methods, but also from the security of trust and reputation management schemes. For this purpose, a novel trust-based opportunistic routing protocol is proposed that introduces three different candidate selection metrics known as RTOR, TORDP, and GEOTOR. Such metrics have been designed to address specific characteristics of opportunistic routing protocols. In continue, a watchdog mechanism is proposed to assist nodes in monitoring their candidates, recalculating their trust value, and finally replacing malicious candidates with benign ones. Afterwards, an analytical approach is introduced using Discrete-Time Markov Chain to demonstrate the effect of malicious nodes on different parameters of a wireless network that uses opportunistic routing. In this model, a new method of calculating packet drop ratio is introduced to represent the effect of attackers. The model is then applied on different well-known opportunistic routing protocols and results of the model are verified by simulation. Finally, the proposed analytical model is extended to include a defensive mechanism against adversary nodes. In fact, a packet salvaging mechanism is developed through which backup candidates attempt to save some of the maliciously dropped data packets. Different related network parameters such as delivery ratio, salvage ratio, direct-delivery ratio, etc. are then introduced, calculated, and reported using the introduced model.

This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nowadays, Opportunistic Routing (OR) is widely considered to be the most important paradigm for Multi-hop wireless networks (MWNs). It exploits the broadcast nature of wireless medium to propagate information from one point to another within the network. In OR scheme, when a node has new information to share, it rst needs to set its forwarding list which include the IDs and/or any relevant information to its best suited neighboring nodes. This operation is supported by the use of appropriate metrics. Then, it executes a coordination algorithm allowing transmission reliability and high throughput among the next-hop forwarders. In this paper, we provide a comprehensive guide to understand the characteristics and challenges faced in the area of opportunistic routing protocols in MWNs. Moreover, since the planet we live on is largely covered by water, OR protocols have gained much attention during the last decade in real-time aquatic applications, such as oil/chemical spill monitoring, ocean resource management, anti-submarine missions and so on. One of the major problems in Underwater Wireless Sensor Network (UWSNs) is determining an e cient and reliable routing methodology between the source node and the destination node. Therefore, designing e cient and robust routing protocols for UWSNs became an attractive topic for researchers. This paper seeks to address in detail the key factors of underwater sensor network. Furthermore, it calls into question 5 state-of-the-art routing protocols proposed for UWSN: The Depth-Based Routing protocol (DBR), the Energy-E cient Depth-Based Routing protocol (EEDBR), the Hydraulic-pressure-based anycast routing protocol (Hydrocast), the Geographic and opportunistic routing protocol with Depth Adjustment for mobile underwater sensor networks (GEDAR), and the Void- Aware Pressure Routing for underwater sensor networks (VAPR). Finally, it covers the performance of those protocol through the use of the R programming language.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ad hoc networking research has received considerable attention in recent years as it represents the next phase of networking evolution. Efficient and reliable routing of data from the source to destination with minimal power consumption remains the crux of the research problem. Fading mechanisms inherent in wireless communications can impact the packet routing mechanisms in these types of networks. In this thesis, we develop a mathematical framework for evaluating several network diversity schemes that take advantage of the random nature of fading to provide/ enhance the network performance. The efficacy of these different network diversity mechanisms are examined in slow-fading, frequency non-selective Rice and Nakagami-m multipath fading channels. Performance metrics such as the end-to-end outage probability and the end-to-end average symbol error rate are studied in the analysis of these types of networks with the proposed network diversity schemes. Numerical results reveal that the proposed schemes can offer significant power efficiency improvement in a variety of operating scenarios of practical interest.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Opportunistic routing (OR) takes advantages of the spatial diversity and broadcast nature of wireless networks to combat the time-varying links by involving multiple neighboring nodes (forwarding candidates) for each packet relay. This dissertation studies the properties, energy efficiency, capacity, throughput, protocol design and security issues about OR in multihop wireless networks. Firstly, we study geographic opportunistic routing (GOR), a variant of OR which makes use of nodes' location information. We identify and prove three important properties of GOR. The first one is on prioritizing the forwarding candidates according to their geographic advancements to the destination. The second one is on choosing the forwarding candidates based on their advancements and link qualities in order to maximize the expected packet advancement (EPA) with different number of forwarding candidates. The third one is on the concavity of the maximum EPA in respect to the number of forwarding candidates. We further propose a local metric, EPA per unit energy consumption, to tradeoff the routing performance and energy efficiency for GOR. Leveraging the proved properties of GOR, we propose two efficient algorithms to select and prioritize forwarding candidates to maximize the local metric. Secondly, capacity is a fundamental issue in multihop wireless networks. We propose a framework to compute the end-to-end throughput bound or capacity of OR in single/multirate systems given OR strategies (candidate selection and prioritization). Taking into account wireless interference and unique properties of OR, we propose a new method of constructing transmission conflict graphs, and we introduce the concept of concurrent transmission sets to allow the proper formulation of the maximum end-to-end throughput problem as a maximum-flow linear programming problem subject to the transmission conflict constraints. We also propose two OR metrics: expected medium time (EMT) and expected advancement rate (EAR), and the corresponding distributed and local rate and candidate set selection schemes, the Least Medium Time OR (LMTOR) and the Multirate Geographic OR (MGOR). We further extend our framework to compute the capacity of OR in multi-radio multi-channel systems with dynamic OR strategies. We study the necessary and sufficient conditions for the schedulability of a traffic demand vector associated with a transmitter to its forwarding candidates in a concurrent transmission set. We further propose an LP approach and a heuristic algorithm to obtain an opportunistic forwarding strategy scheduling that satisfies a traffic demand vector. Our methodology can be used to calculate the end-to-end throughput bound of OR in multi-radio/channel/rate multihop wireless networks, as well as to study the OR behaviors (such as candidate selection and prioritization) under different network configurations. Thirdly, protocol design of OR in a contention-based medium access environment is an important and challenging issue. In order to avoid duplication, we should ensure only the "best" receiver of each packet to forward it in an efficient way. We investigate the existing candidate coordination schemes and propose a "fast slotted acknowledgment" (FSA) to further improve the performance of OR by using a single ACK to coordinate the forwarding candidates with the help of the channel sensing technique. Furthermore, we study the throughput of GOR in multi-rate and single-rate systems. We introduce a framework to analyze the one-hop throughput of GOR, and provide a deeper insight on the trade-off between the benefit (packet advancement, bandwidth, and transmission reliability) and cost (medium time delay) associated with the node collaboration. We propose a local metric named expected one-hop throughput (EOT) to balance the benefit and cost. Finally, packet reception ratio (PRR) has been widely used as an indicator of the link quality in multihop wireless networks. Many routing protocols including OR in wireless networks depend on the PRR information to make routing decision. Providing accurate link quality measurement (LQM) is essential to ensure the right operation of these routing protocols. However, the existing LQM mechanisms are subject to malicious attacks, thus can not guarantee to provide correct link quality information. We analyze the security vulnerabilities in the existing link quality measurement (LQM) mechanisms and propose an efficient broadcast-based secure LQM (SLQM) mechanism, which prevents the malicious attackers from reporting a higher PRR than the actual one. We analyze the security strength and the cost of the proposed mechanism.
