Simulation studies of information propagation in a self-organizing distributed traffic information system

This paper investigates the feasibility of a self-organizing, completely distributed traffic information system based upon vehicle-to-vehicle communication technologies. Unlike centralized traffic information systems, the proposed system does not need public infrastructure investment as a prerequisite for implementation. Due to the complexity of the proposed system, simulation is selected as the primary approach in the feasibility studies. A simulation framework is built based on an existing microscopic traffic simulation model for the simulation studies. The critical questions for building the proposed market-driven system are examined both from communication requirements and traffic engineering points of view. Traffic information propagation both in freeway and arterial networks via information exchange among IVC-equipped vehicles is tested within the simulation framework. Results on the probability of successful IVC and traffic information propagation distance obtained from the simulation studies are generated and analyzed under incident-free and incident conditions for various roadway formats and parameter combinations. Comparisons between the speed of the incident information wave and the speed of the corresponding traffic shock wave due to the incident are analyzed for different scenarios as the most crucial aspect of the information propagation as a potential foundation for application in such a decentralized traffic information system.     

海上多跳无线自组网路由协议仿真研究

海事卫星通信由于其高昂的价格,难以得到广泛应用。为提高海上船舶通信的效率和经济性,有学者和企业提出了海上多跳无线自组网。然而,由于海面特殊的地理条件,波闭塞效应往往会干扰无线通信所需要的稳定链路,造成连接中断和通信质量下降。为解决以上问题,本文提出一种集合路径路由方法,通过对海上通信链路建模和特征分析,将多个海上节点组织为虚节点,使用虚节点之间的路由方法来增强通信链路的可靠性和稳定性,并利用仿真证明本文提出方案的可行性和高效性。

无线Mesh网络的跨层设计理论与关键技术

由于无线M esh网络(WMN)在拓扑、传输和业务上的特性,传统的用于有线网络的分层协议设计方法已不能保证其服务质量(QoS).探索基于物理层、MAC层、路由等协议层的WMN跨层设计方法的目标是在无线资源利用率和多媒体业务的QoS需求两方面达到较好的折衷.WMN各个协议层在设计过程中的有关协议和算法要求附加统一的跨层管理器,监测各层的分组传输性能或需求,动态控制或调节相关算法.通过实现较高协议层的多媒体业务QoS需求与较低协议层的网络状态信息在各协议层之间的共享,可以达到对协议层控制算法的优化.在合理地选择跨层设计目标的基础上,多个协议层需要联合设计与优化.从物理层、MAC层、路由协议层和TCP层等层面介绍了WMN跨层设计的一般原则和方法.归纳了目前WMN跨层设计中亟待深入研究的一些理论和关键技术,包括自适应速率与节能机制、基于QoS需求的跨层MAC协议设计和路由协议设计等.     

IP ADDRESS AUTOCONFIGURATION FOR WIRELESS AD HOC NETWORKS

IntroductionWireless ad hoc networks are gaining increas-ing popularity in recent years because of their easeof deployment. No wired base station or infras-tructure is supported,and each hostcommunicatesone anothervia packetradios. In ad hoc networks,routing protocols are challenged with establishingand maintaining multihop routes in the face of mo-bility,bandwidth limitation and power con-straints. In ad hoc networks,each node( host)acts as a router since routes are mostly multihop.Nodes in …     

Reliable routing algorithm in marine ad hoc networks

A routing algorithm called DNH for increasing efficiency of mobile ad hoe network is presented, which is based on a new cflteflon called TSS (Temporarily Steady State), combining with wireless transmission theory that makes networks topology correspondingly stabilization. Also the DNH algorithm has the characteristics of giving up queuing in a node, but selecting another idle node instead of the node for forwarding data packets if the node has a full throughput. Simulation evaluation shows that selecting another node is better than queuing in a full throughout node if some conditions are satisfied, especially during a sea battle, every warship in ad hoe network wants to contest time and increase propagation reliability. The DNH algorithm can help decrease routing time, and raise efficiency of marine ad hoe networks.

Effects of denial of service attack in mobile ad hoc networks

Mobile ad hoc networks are often deployed in environments where the nodes of the networks are unattended and have little or no physical protection against tampering. The nodes of mobile ad hoc networks are thus susceptible to compromise. The networks are particularly vulnerable to denial of service (DoS) attacks launched through compromised nodes or intruders. In this paper, we investigated the effects of flooding attacks in network simulation 2 (NS-2) and measured the packet delivery ratio and packet delay under different flooding frequencies and different numbers of attack nodes. Simulation results show that with the increase the flooding frequencies and the numbers of attack nodes, network performance drops. But when the frequency of flooding attacks is greater than a value, the performance decrease gets smooth. Meanwhile the packet delay firstly increases and then declines to a value of stability at the end.     

On the network connectivity of platoon-based vehicular cyber-physical systems

In the past few years, vehicular ad hoc networking (VANET) has attracted significant attention and many fundamental issues have been investigated, such as network connectivity, medium access control (MAC) mechanism, routing protocol, and quality of service (QoS). Nevertheless, most related work has been based on simplified assumptions on the underlying vehicle traffic dynamics, which has a tight interaction with VANET in practice. In this paper, we try to investigate VANET performance from the vehicular cyber-physical system (VCPS) perspective. Specifically, we consider VANET connectivity of platoon-based VCPSs where all vehicles drive in platoon-based patterns, which facilitate better traffic performance as well as information services. We first propose a novel architecture for platoon-based VCPSs, then we derive the vehicle distribution under platoon-based driving patterns on a highway. Based on the results, we further investigate inter-platoon connectivity in a bi-directional highway scenario and evaluate the expected time of safety message delivery among platoons, taking into account the effects of system parameters, such as traffic flow, velocity, platoon size and transmission range. Extensive simulations are conducted which validate the accuracy of our analysis. This study will be helpful to understand the behavior of VCPSs, and will be helpful to improve vehicle platoon design and deployment.
