“…However, the juggling-based approaches impose higher implementation complexity, time synchronization problem, overhead for injecting ACK packets, and wasting time in the form of guard time to accommodate ACK packets. Therefore, this paper proposed a new protocol by ensembling RS [24] in UDTN-Prob protocol and incorporating a new packet spraying technique. This protocol is simple in terms of implementation, does not require time synchronization, no ACK required, no guard time required, and can overcome most of the aforementioned limitations.…”

“…In case of UDTN-Prob, packets are sprayed using the binary spraying technique and the replication frequency of a packet is restricted to 5. On the other hand, alike [24], n and k are selected as 3 and 2, respectively for UDTN-RS and the replication frequency of a group is restricted to 3. Three metrics are considered in evaluating the performance of the compared protocols, namely Normalized Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR), End-to-End Delay, and Normalized Throughput.…”

The Coastal Patrol and Surveillance Application (CPSA) is developed and deployed to detect, track and monitor water vessel traffic using automated devices. Latest advancements of marine technologies, including the Automatic Underwater Vehicles, have allowed the development of this type of applications. To facilitate their operations, installation of a Coastal Patrol and Surveillance Network (CPSN) is mandatory. One of the primary design objectives of this network is to deliver adequate amount of data within an effective time period. This is particularly essential for reporting a detection and notifying the current status of an intruder’s vessel through the adverse underwater communication channels. Additionally, intermittent connectivity of the nodes remain another important obstacle to overcome to allow smooth functioning of CPSA. Taking these objectives and obstacles into account, this work proposes a new protocol, named UDTN-RS, which is developed by ensembling forward error correction technique (namely Reed-Solomon codes or RS) in Underwater Delay Tolerant Network (UDTN) routing protocol with probabilistic spraying technique. In addition, the existing binary packet spraying technique is enhanced for supporting encoded packet exchange between the contacting nodes. A comprehensive simulation campaign is performed in identifying the effectiveness of the proposed protocol. The obtained results suggest that the proposed UDTN-RS protocol can be considered a suitable alternative of the existing protocols for sparse networks like CPSN.

“…On the other hand, the constant generation of redundant information combined with the bandwidth utilization are two inevitable parameters that should be taken into account during the design. By using multiple paths to transmit data, extra information is automatically transmitted throughout the network increasing the congestion level and the energy consumption [33].…”

A selective multipath routing protocol for ubiquitous networks

During the past years, ubiquitous networks have become an interesting topic for research due to their flexible and independent nature in terms of network infrastructure. A lot of effort has been made around the design of efficient routing protocols, mainly because of their unique characteristics, such as, dynamic topology, high mobility and limited bandwidth. In this paper, we propose a new routing protocol which is based on our Multipath-ChaMeLeon (M-CML) routing protocol. We perform a network optimization analysis of M-CML under a series of simulations taking into account three Quality of Service (QoS) metrics and we provide the results with statistical confidence interval by applying the Wilcoxon signed-rank test model. On top of the outcome of the analysis, we also apply an intelligent algorithm to enhance our protocol's effectiveness by reducing the improvident emission of data packets. The new protocol, named M-CMLv2, is compared to OLSR, AOMDV and M-CML using the NS-3 simulator. The acquired results indicate that M-CMLv2 reduces the redundant information, maintains good performance at successfully delivering packets with acceptable end-to-end delay, while at the same time, it reduces the network's routing load and the energy consumption of the nodes.

“…Many multipath routing protocols have been proposed in the literary [5][6][7][8][9][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25] of wireless sensor networks. Most multipath mechanisms are believed to improve the reliability of networks; some of them also are related to energy saving and latency.…”

Multipath routing is an alternative routing technique, which uses redundant paths to deliver data from source to destination. Compared to single path routing protocols, it can address reliability, delay, and energy consumption issues. Thus, multipath routing is a potential technique to overcome the long propagation delay and adverse link condition in underwater environment. However, there are still some problems in multipath routing. For example, the multiple paths may interfere with each other and arouse large end-to-end delay difference amongst multiple paths. This paper proposes a novel multipath routing structure and a conflict-free algorithm based on TDMA scheme. The forwarding nodes are selected based on the propagation delay and location information. This special multiple routing structure not only can ensure parallel multiple transmission without collision, but also can get a small end-to-end delay difference amongst multiple paths. Simulation results show that the multipath routing scheme proposed in this paper outperforms the traditional strategy.
