Proposal of interference reduction routing for ad-hoc networks
Katsuhiro Naito, Kazuo Mori, Hideo Kobayashi
In this paper, we propose an interference reduction
routing protocol for ad-hoc networks. The interference is one of
the degradation factors in wireless communications. In the ad-hoc
network, some nodes communicate simultaneously. Therefore,
these communications cause interference each other, and some
packets are corrupted due to interference from another node. In
the proposed protocol, each node estimates required transmission
power according to hello messages. Therefore, the node can
transmit a data packet with minimum required transmission
power. Consequently, the interference against neighbor nodes
can be reduced. From simulation results, we can find that the
proposed protocol can reduce the number of control messages
and can improve the throughput performance. Full Text
