  2. Sections • Broadcasting in wireless ad hoc networks. • Multipoint Relays (MPRs). • Our new algorithm. • Conclusion and future work.

  3. Section 1 Section 2 Section 3 Section 4 Broadcasting in wireless ad hoc networks • It is commonly used in routing protocols. • As a necessary mechanism in various applications that need to maintain global network information (paging a particular host or sending alarm signals).

  4. Section 1 Section 2 Section 3 Section 4 Network wide broadcast in ad hoc networks Due to the limitation of radio power, a mobile node may not be within the transmission range of all other nodes. Therefore, broadcast packets have to be relayed by other recipient nodes. S

  5. Section 1 Section 2 Section 3 Section 4 Proposed broadcast algorithms Generally, broadcast algorithms in ad hoc networks can be categorized into five groups [1]: • Probability based algorithms. • Distance based algorithms. • Location based algorithms. • Neighbor-designating algorithms. • Cluster based algorithms.

  6. Section 1 Section 2 Section 3 Section 4 Neighbor–designating algorithms • Each node informs neighbor nodes about its node information such as node IDs of neighbor nodes. • A node determines whether its neighbors should forward broadcast packets.

  7. Section 1 Section 2 Section 3 Section 4 Neighbor–designating example Node S chooses its neighbors A, B and C to relay broadcast packets. B S A C

  8. Section 1 Section 2 Section 3 Section 4 Cluster based algorithms • Network is clustered and cluster-heads are elected. Cluster-heads are referred to as dominators. • Cluster-heads select some connectors to connect other cluster-heads.

  10. Section 1 Section 2 Section 3 Section 4 Multipoint Relays (MPRs) It is a broadcast mechanism used in the Optimized Link State Routing protocol (OLSR) [2, 3] , and it belongs to the family of neighbor–designating algorithms. Each node selects a subset of nodes from its one-hop neighbors to cover all its two-hop neighbors.

  11. Section 1 Section 2 Section 3 Section 4 a {1, 2, 3} b {3, 4, 5} e {6, 7, 8} f {8} c { } d { } e {6, 7, 8} b {4, 5} f {8} c { } d { } b {4, 5} f { } c { } d { } Multipoint Relays example 2 3 1 4 a Selected MPRs: {a, b, e} b 5 f c 8 e d 7 6

  12. Section 1 Section 2 Section 3 Section 4 Our Gateway Multipoint Relays (GMPR) • It is a combination of Clustering and Multipoint Relay methods. • Each node in the network can be in one of the four states: dominator, dominatee, connector and candidate. Dominator: It is the cluster-head, and it performs MPR calculation. Dominatee: The nodes connected by dominators. Node states Connector: Can only be entered from dominatee state. Candidate: Initial state that attends dominator election.

  13. Section 1 Section 2 Section 3 Section 4 Operations of GMPR • Dominators (nodes that covers most number of candidates) are elected in the network where all nodes can be covered by the dominators. • Each dominator selects MPRs to cover its two-hop neighbor nodes. • An MPR is a connector if it is selected by the largest dominator of this MPR. • Only dominators and connectors forward broadcast packets.

  14. Section 1 Section 2 Section 3 Section 4 Gateway Multipoint Relays example • Elect dominators based on the candidate coverage. • Dominators calculate MPRs to cover two-hop neighbor nodes. • Each MPR decides whether it is the connector.

  15. Section 1 Section 2 Section 3 Section 4 Self-pruning procedure Aim: To further reduce retransmissions by preventing leaf-dominators forwarding broadcast packets. A dominator D is a leaf-dominator if it has a one-hop connector that can cover all D’s one-hop neighbors. A leaf-dominator is referred to as the Silent-dominator, which still selects MPRs but does not retransmit broadcast packets.

  16. Section 1 Section 2 Section 3 Section 4 Self-pruning procedure example After selecting connectors Dominators: E, H Connector: F A G B E F H Then Both dominators apply self-pruning procedure, and H becomes a silent-dominator. C I D

  17. Section 1 Section 2 Section 3 Section 4 Simulation studies

  18. Section 1 Section 2 Section 3 Section 4 Simulation results Transmission range R = 25m

  19. Section 1 Section 2 Section 3 Section 4 Simulation results Transmission range R = 50m

  20. Section 1 Section 2 Section 3 Section 4 Conclusion and future work We have proposed a new efficient broadcast algorithm based on the Multipoint Relays and clustering methods. Simulation studies show that compared with related work, our algorithm generates fewer forwarding nodes thus reducing retransmissions and collisions. Future work: investigate the performance of our algorithm in both dense and mobile environment.

  24. Section 1 Section 2 Section 3 Section 4 Probability based algorithms It is similar to the “blind flooding”, but each node rebroadcast a packet with a predetermined probability value “P”. • Problems: • Can not guarantee full coverage in the network. • Has little effect on in sparse network.

  25. Section 1 Section 2 Section 3 Section 4 Distance based algorithms A node retransmit a broadcast packet if the distance between it and the sender of the packet is larger than a predefined threshold distance. • Problems: • Energy wastage (unnecessary broadcast) • Cannot guarantee full coverage d1 d2 S A B

  26. Section 1 Section 2 Section 3 Section 4 Additional coverage Location based algorithms Use positioning devices such as GPS (Global Positioning System) to provide precise locations of hosts in a network. A host retransmits a broadcast packet if the additional area it covers is larger than a threshold value. d1 d2 S A B
