X Abstract

In a MAINET network where nodes move frequently, the probability of connectivity loss between nodes might be high, and communication sessions may easily loose connectivity during transmission. The routing protocol is designed to find alternative paths in these situations. This rerouting takes time, and the latency is referred to as the rerouting time. This paper investigates the rerouting time of proactive routing protocols and shows that the rerouting time is considerably affected by queueing. Simulations and analysis are conducted to explore the problem. Finally, we propose a MAC-layer solution that reduces the rerouting time problems due to queueing. Simulations and analysis show that the solution is so effective that it eliminates the entire problem in many situations.

RIS BibTeX
CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
