The proposed Enhanced Topology Aware Routing (ETAR) procedure efficiently maps a network topology into a lowdimensional virtual coordinate space. The hop distances between node pairs are preserved. The node is categorized by a coordinate vector. This vector contains hop distances to the anchor nodes. Therefore ETAR can assist greedy forwarding to find the precise neighbor one hop closer to the terminus by eliminating the local minimum problem and attain high success ratio of packet delivery and throughput without location information. Creating VCs involve a single flooding for each anchor and each collecting coordinates from a set of small number of random nodes hence reduces the average end to end delay, energy and power. Further, embedding a network topology based on the metric of Probable Communication Count (PCC) improves the routing quality.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
