Abstract

This paper proposes a virtual mobile ad-hoc network (VMANET) model that automatically divides heterogeneous mobile devices of a MANET into a number of network groups depending on the communication capacity(data rate) of different network operational models such as IEEE 802.11g, IEEE 802.11b, and Frequency Hopping. In addition, it supports a distinct routing protocol for each network group of VMANETs, resulting in running multiple routing protocols concurrently on different groups of VMANETs. To reduce the network congestion and improve the network load balance, a default MANET gateway is configured in each VMANET and these gateways are responsible for integrating the MANET and IP networks. Experiment results show that the proposed model outperforms the conventional IMANET by significantly increasing throughput and reducing network congestion and network delay.

본 논문은 IEEE 802.11g, IEEE 802.11b, 주파수 도약과 같은 서로 다른 네트워크 동작 모델의 통신 용량에 따라 이종 모바일 디바이스들을 서로 다른 네트워크 그룹으로 자동적으로 분리하는 가상 모바일 애드혹 네트워크(VMANET) 모델을 제안한다. 또한 제안하는 모델은 VMANET들의 각 그룹을 위한 특정 라우팅 알고리즘을 지원함으로써 다중 라우팅 알고리즘이 VMANET의 서로 다른 그룹에서 동시에 동작 가능하다. 네트워크 정체를 줄이고 네트워크 부하 밸런스를 향상시키기 위해 고정 MANET 게이트웨이가 각 VMANET에서 이용되며, 이러한 게이트웨이는 MANET과 IP 네트워크를 통합 가능케 한다. 모의실험결과, 제안하는 모델은 기존 IMANET보다 상당한 처리량을 증가시켰고, 네트워크 정체 및 네트워크 지연 또한 감소시켰다.
