A Hexagonal-Tree TDMA-Based QoS Multicasting Protocol for Wireless Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks

(2) 2. channel model is assumed in [12][13] to develop QoS routing protocols in a MANET, where the use of a time slot on a link is only dependent on the status of its one-hop neighboring links. Observe that a code assignment protocol should be supported (this can be regarded as an independent problem, which can be found in [12][13]). Based on such a model, Lin calculates the end-to-end path bandwidth to develop DSDV-based QoS routing protocol [13] and on-demand QoS routing protocol [12] for MANETs. More recently, one simpler TDMA model [11] is further considered in [11] to develop an uni-path QoS routing protocol in the MANET. Their approach shows how to allocate time slots on each link of a path such that no two adjacent links share a common time slot. This paper mainly presents a new TDMA-based QoS multicast routing protocol, namely the hexagonaltree QoS multicast protocol, for a wireless mobile ad hoc network. Existing QoS routing solutions have addressed this problem by assuming a stronger multi-antenna model or a less stronger CDMA-over-TDMA channel model. This study attempts to build a new multicast tree structure, namely hexagonal tree, to serve as the QoS multicasting tree, where the MAC sub-layer is adopted the TDMA channel model. In this work, both of the hidden-terminal and exposed-terminal problems are taken into consideration to possibly exploit the time-slot re-use capability. The hexagonal-based scheme offers a higher success rate to construct the QoS multicast tree due to using the hexagonal-tree. The hexagonal-tree is a tree whose sub-path of the tree is the hexagonal-path. The hexagonal-path is a special two-path structure. This greatly improves the success rate by means of multi-path routing. Performance analysis results is finally discussed to demonstrate the efficient QoS multicasting achievement. The rest of the paper is organized as follows. Section II presents basic idea and challenges. Our protocol is developed in Section III and experimental results are discussed in Section IV. Section V concludes this paper. II. BASIC I DEA. AND. C HALLENGES. Existing TDMA-based routing protocols ignores the transmission activities of individual mobile hosts. Let’s recall the hidden-terminal and exposed-terminal problems, which are well-known problems in the literature of radio-based communication. Consider the scenario in Fig. 1, where the bandwidth requirement is 2 time slots. Fig. 1(a) shows the hidden-terminal problem that if A sends to B on slots 1 2, then D will not al-. lowed to send data to F on slots 1 2. On the contrary, Fig. 1(b) illustrates the exposed-terminal problem that if A sends to B on slots 1 2, then C allows to send data to E on slots 1 2. Observe that if QoS routing pro-. tocol only considers the hidden-terminal problem, then no three adjacent links are allowed to share the same free time-slots. This limitation can be improved if the exposed-terminal problem is also taken into consideration, such that it is possibly that no two adjacent links shares same time slots. This observation motivates our design to take the hidden- and exposed-terminal problems into consideration. The major contribution of this study is to design a QoS multi-path multicast routing under above considerations. This work aims to develop a new multicast tree by exploiting the time-slot re-use capability. Before formally defining the our multicast-tree structure, the network model is assumed. The MAC sub-layer in our model is implemented by using TDMA channel model, where each frame is divided into a control and data phases, each data phase of a frame is split into. k time slots.. Some terms is defined. Let (h 1 . h2 . . hk ).

A node B is said as a branch node if there exist more than one. disjoint paths from a three-hop neighboring node B , so that nodes B and B are called as a pair of branch 0. 0. nodes. Some terms are defined as follows.. Definition 1 Hexagonal-Block: Given a pair of two branch nodes B and B , there are two disjoint three0. hop paths (B. X Y B ) and (B X Y B ) between these two branch nodes, where X and X are not not 1-hop neighbor. Paths (B X Y B ) and (B X Y B ) forms a 1-hop neighbors andY and Y are X Y hexagonal-block, let B as a hexagonal-block between B and B . X Y B denote X Y For instance, a hexagonal-block B X Y B is shown in Fig. 2(a), there are two disjoint three-hop paths (B X Y B ) and (B X Y B ) between a pair of branch nodes B and B : In general, nodes X and X may be neighboring, and nodes Y and Y may be neighboring. The hexagonal-block gives a less stronger condition that nodes X and X are not 1-hop neighbors and nodes Y and Y are not 1-hop neighbors, as 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. illustrated in Fig. 2(a). This condition is important for the time-slot reservation scheme in order to exploit the time-slot re-use capability. Using the hexagonal-block allows us to equally split the original data packet into two sub-packets, such that.

(5) 5. (a). (c). (b) Fig. 4. Examples of hexagonal-paths. In the QoS route discovery, if an uni-path exists under satisfying a given QoS requirement, the uni-path will be identified. However, if the QoS uni-path is not existed, then the hexagonal-block and hexagonal-twin are used to offer a multi-path routing scheme, which aim to increase the success rate of identifying the QoS route. For instance as shown in Fig. 3(a), an uni-path with two time slots is constructed. If we cannot find an uni-path with two time slots, then a hexagonal-block with two time slots or a hexagonal-twin with two time slots are possibly identified, as shown in Fig. 3(b) and Fig. 3(c). Further, Fig. 4(a) shows a hexagonal-path with two non-adjacent hexagonal-blocks connecting by an uni-path. Fig. 4(b) illustrates a hexagonal-path constructed by two adjacent hexagonal-blocks. Fig. 4(c) displays a hexagonal-path constructed by a hexagonal-twin. Note that, all cases are instances of the hexagonal-path. We introduce the time-slot re-use capability of a hexagonal-block and hexagonal-twin as follows.. Lemma 1 A time slot t can be used by a host X to send to another host Y without causing collision if the. following conditions are all satisfied.. 1. Slot t is not yet scheduled to send or receive in neither X nor Y:. 2. For any 1-hop neighbor Z of X , slot t is not scheduled to receive in Z: Slot t can be scheduled (or reused). to send in Z but cannot send to any other 1-hop neighbors of X (conflict with condition 1).. 3. For any 1-hop neighbor Z of Y , slot t is not scheduled to send in Z: Slot t can be scheduled (or reused) to.

This is the fundamental operation of the tree structure. The purpose of the tree branch is to send the same data packet into two distinct nodes under satisfying the given bandwidth requirement. Each node can continually build a sub-tree to cover all possible destination nodes. All possible cases of tree branch are illustrated in Fig. 7, and a tree branch is occurred between node. A and nodes J M . 7. Initially, Fig. 7(a) shows that node A sends packet to nodes J and M by using three uni-paths AG GJ and GM with two time-slots.

T HE H EXAGONAL -T REE TDMA-BASED Q O S M ULTICAST ROUTING P ROTOCOL We first give an overview of our proposed protocol, a hexagonal-tree TDMA-Based QoS multicast protocol, in a MANET. The proposed protocol mainly constructs a hexagonal-tree to perform the on-demand QoS multicast routing operation. The designed protocol is achieved by the hexagonal-branch/twin identification and hexagonal-tree construction phases. The hexagonal-branch/twin identification phase identifies the hexagonal-branch/twin in a MANET. The hexagonal-tree construction phase constructs the hexagonal-tree by merging hexagonal-paths from a source to all destinations..

Phase 2: Hexagonal-Tree structure The hexagonal-tree construction phase is divided into three operations.. 1: The hexagonal-path. discovery: Based on identified hexagonal-branches and hexagonal-twins, many. hexagonal-paths from a source to a given set of destinations are constructed (see Fig. 11(a)).. 2: The hexagonal-path reply : Destination receives the route-request packet from a source, and replies a. route-reply packet to the source (see Fig. 11(b)). 3:. The hexagonal-tree construction:. Multiple hexagonal-paths are received from all destinations, the. hexagonal-tree is finally established in the source (see Fig. 11(c)). Finally, the source sends data packet according to the determined the hexagonal-tree as shown in Fig. 11(d).

B.3 The Hexagonal-Tree Construction This study mainly constructs the hexagonal tree which is modified from the spiral-fat-tree on-demand multicast(SOM) protocol [5]. Observe that, the construction of the multicast tree can use the results of [3], [19], [18], [20], [17]. In this work, all spiral-path of the spiral-fat-tree [5] are replaced with the hexagonal-path for the purpose of providing the QoS-extension multicast protocol. Given that two hexagonal-paths 1 . 2 p p+1 k ](b) and 1 2 p p+1 k ](b) have the same hexagonal sub-path 1 2 p](b) we denote (1 2 p p+1 k ](b) 1 2 p p+1 k ](b)) = 1 2 p](b): Further, let 1 2 p](b s) denote as s hexagonal-paths with same 1 2 p ](b): We also denote 1 2 p ](b) = p to be the shared hexagonal-path length. Given each pair of s and s replied hexagonal-paths, among many replied hexagonal-paths from destination . 0. . 0. \. . . 0. . . 0. . . j. . j. 0. nodes to the source node, we have the merging cirterion to construct the hexagonal-tree according to values of p s and b.. (D 1) If the s replied hexagonal-paths with the maximum values of p, s and b, then these s hexagonal-paths. are merged together with the highest priority.. (D 2) If there are s and s replied hexagonal-paths with the same values of p and s, then s hexagonal-paths 0. with the greater value of b are merged together.. (D 3) If there are s and s replied hexagonal-paths with the same values of b and s, then s hexagonal-paths 0. with the greater value of p are merged together.. (D 4) If there are s and s replied hexagonal-paths with the same values of b and p, then s hexagonal-paths 0. with the greater value of s are merged together.. (D 5) If there are s and s replied hexagonal-paths with the same values of p, then s hexagonal-paths with 0.

IV. E XPERIMENTAL R ESULTS A simulator is developed by C++ to evaluate the performance of our approach. The simulation parameters in the simulator are given below. . The number of mobile hosts is ranging from 20 to 50..
(18) 18. . The number of time slots of the data frame is assumed to be 16 slots.. . The bandwidth requirement are 2, 4, 6 and 8 time slots.. . The mobility is ranging from 10 to 40 Km/hr.. . The message length is ranging from 1 to 4 Mbit/s.. . The radio transmission range is 200 m.. . The transmission rate is 5Mbits/sec. To examine the effectiveness of our approach, we compare our proposal with two well-known MANET. multicast routing protocols, which are AODV [3] and ODMRP [17]. Observe that, AODV and ODMRP do not offer the QoS capability. In addition, Tseng [11] designed a TDMA-based QoS uni-path routing protocol. To make a fair comparison, we provide the QoS-extension AODV and ODMRP protocols by integrating with Tseng’s TDMA-based QoS uni-path routing result [11]. In this simulation, these two integrated results are denoted as AODV(+Tseng) and ODMRP(+Tseng), respectively. The simulator is simulated in a 10001000 m 2 area. The duration of each time slot of a time frame is assumed to be 5 ms, and the duration of a control slot is 0.1 ms. Source and destination are selected randomly. Once a QoS request is successful, a time slots is reserved for all the subsequent packets. The reservation is released when either the data transmission process is finished or the link is broken. A packet is dropped if the packet stays in a node exceeds the maximal queuing delay time, which is setting to four frame lengths (328 ms). The performance metrics of our simulation are given below. . Success Rate (SR):. The number of successful QoS route requests divided by the total number of QoS. route requests from source to destination. . . Overhead (OH ): The number of packets of transmitted packets, including the control and data packets. Latency(LT ): The interval from the time the multicast was initiated to the time the last host finishing its. multicasting.. It is worth mentioning that an efficient QoS routing protocol is achieved by with high success rate SR, and. low overhead. OH and low LT .. In the following, we illustrate the performance of. SR, OH and LT. from. several prospects. A. Performance of Success Rate (SR) The observed results of the performance of success rate vs. number of mobile hosts and network bandwidth are illustrated in Fig. 15. The low success rate of our approach will be obtained if the bandwidth requirement is large. Four kinds of effects are illustrated. 1a) Effects of number of hosts: Each value in Fig. 15(a) is obtained by assuming the bandwidth requirement (slot number) is 2, the number of destinations is 2 and the mobility is 10 Km/hr. From Fig. 15(a), the. greater number of hosts is, the higher SR value will be obtained. For instance, if number of hosts is 20, then. SR values of AODV(+Tseng), ODMRP(+Tseng) and our protocol are 12%, 14%, and 17%, respectively. If number of hosts is 50, then SR values of AODV(+Tseng), ODMRP(+Tseng) and our protocol are 62%, 69%, and 81%, respectively. This indicates that our protocol acquires the better success rate than other two schemes under various number of hosts..

Fig. 15(b) illustrates that the higher bandwidth requirement is, the lower. SR value will be obtained.. For instance, if bandwidth requirement. SR values of AODV(+Tseng), ODMRP(+Tseng) and our protocol are 62%, 68%, and 79%, respectively. If bandwidth requirement is eight, then SR values of AODV(+Tseng), ODMRP(+Tseng) and. is two, then. our protocol are 10%, 14%, and 32%, respectively. This indicates that our protocol acquires the better success rate than other two schemes even in various bandwidth requirement. 1c) Effects of mobility: Each value in Fig. 15(c) is obtained by assuming the number of hosts is 50, the number of destinations is 2 and bandwidth requirement is 2.

SR values of AODV(+Tseng), ODMRP(+Tseng), and our protocol are 13%, 16%, and 20%, respectively. This indicates that our protocol acquires the better success rate than other two schemes under various mobility. 1d) Effects of number of destinations: Each value in Fig. 15(d) is obtained by assuming the number of hosts is 50, the mobility is 10 Km/hr and bandwidth requirement is 2. Fig. 15(d) indicates that the greater number of destinations is, the lower. SR value will be.. For instance, if the number of destination is two, then. SR. values of AODV(+Tseng), ODMRP(+Tseng), and our protocol,are 75%, 78%, and 80%, respectively. If the number of destination is five, then. SR values of AODV(+Tseng), ODMRP(+Tseng), and our protocol are. 21%, 32%, and 41%, respectively. This indicates that our protocol acquires the better success rate than other two schemes under various number of destinations. B. Performance of OverHead (OH ) The observed results of the performance of overhead vs. number of mobile hosts and network bandwidth are illustrated in Fig. 16. The low overhead of our approach will be obtained if the bandwidth requirement is large.

From Fig. 16(a),. the greater number of hosts is, the higher OH value will be obtained. For instance, if number of hosts is 20,. then OH values of AODV(+Tseng), ODMRP(+Tseng) and our protocol are 243, 312, and 411, respectively. If number of hosts is 50, then OH values of AODV(+Tseng), ODMRP(+Tseng) and our protocol are 1534, 1836, and 2410, respectively. This indicates that our protocol acquires the higher overhead than other two schemes. 2b) Effects of bandwidth requirement: Each value in Fig. 16(b) is obtained by assuming the number of hosts is 20, the number of destinations is 2, message length is 1M and the mobility is 10 Km/hr. Fig. 16(b) shows. that the higher bandwidth requirement is, the stable OH value will be obtained. For instance, if bandwidth. requirement is 2, then OH values of AODV(+Tseng), ODMRP(+Tseng), and our protocol are 286, 336, and. 409, respectively. If bandwidth requirement is eight, then OH values of AODV(+Tseng), ODMRP(+Tseng), and our protocol are 289, 337, and 410, respectively.

OH. values of AODV(+Tseng), ODMRP(+Tseng), and our protocol are 243, 276, and 386, respectively. If the mobility is 40 Km/hr, then OH values of AODV(+Tseng), ODMRP(+Tseng), and our protocol are 856, 965, and 1121, respectively.

From Fig. 17(a), the. greater number of hosts is, the higher LT value will be obtained. For instance, if number of hosts is 20, then. LT values of AODV(+Tseng), ODMRP(+Tseng), and our protocol are 0.39, 0.31, and 0.22, respectively. If number of hosts is 50, then LT values of AODV(+Tseng), ODMRP(+Tseng), and our protocol are 0.91, 0.82, and 0.75, respectively. This indicates that our protocol acquires the lower latency than other two schemes under various number of hosts. 3b) Effects of bandwidth requirement: Each value in Fig. 17(b) is obtained by assuming the number of hosts is 20, the number of destinations is 2, message length is 1M and the mobility is 10 Km/hr.

For instance, if. bandwidth requirement is two, then LT values of AODV(+Tseng), ODMRP(+Tseng), and our protocol are 0.39, 0.31, and 0.22, respectively. If bandwidth requirement is eight, then. LT. values of AODV(+Tseng),. ODMRP(+Tseng), and our protocol are 0.09, 0.07, and 0.06, respectively. This indicates that our protocol acquires the lower latency than other two schemes even in various bandwidth requirement. 3c) Effects of mobility: Each value in Fig. 17(c) is obtained by assuming the number of hosts is 20, the number of destinations is 2, message length is 1M and bandwidth requirement is 2. Fig. 17(c) indicates that the higher mobility is, the higher LT value will be. For instance, if the mobility is 10 Km/hr, then LT values. of AODV(+Tseng), ODMRP(+Tseng), and our protocol are 0.37, 0.31, and 0.22, respectively. If the mobility is 40 Km/hr, then LT values of AODV(+Tseng), ODMRP(+Tseng), and our protocol are 0.68, 0.61, and 0.55, respectively. This indicates that our protocol acquires the lower latency than other two schemes under the various mobility. 3d) Effects of number of destinations: Each value in Fig. 17(d) is obtained by assuming the number of hosts is 20, mobility is 10 Km/hr, message length is 1M and bandwidth requirement is 2.

For instance, if the number of destination is two,. then LT values of AODV(+Tseng), ODMRP(+Tseng), and our protocol are 0.37, 0.3, and 0.23, respectively. If the number of destination is five, then LT values of AODV(+Tseng), ODMRP(+Tseng), and our protocol. are 0.75, 0.67, and 0.49, respectively.

This indicates that our protocol acquires the lower latency than other two schemes under various message lengths.. Apparently, it is desirable to have a high SR and low LT . The higher the SR is, the lower the LT will be.. It is always beneficial to adopt our protocol as demonstrated by the simulation results..
(24) 24. V. C ONCLUSIONS This paper presents a new TDMA-based QoS multicast routing protocol for a wireless mobile ad hoc network. This study builds a new multicast tree structure, namely hexagonal tree, to serve as the QoS multicasting tree, where the MAC sub-layer is adopted the TDMA channel model. Both of the hidden-terminal and exposed-terminal problems are taken into consideration to possibly exploit the time-slot re-use capability during constructing the hexagonal-tree. In this paper, the proposed hexagonal-based scheme indeed offers a higher success rate to construct the QoS multicast tree. This greatly improves the success rate by means of two-path routing. Performance analysis results finally demonstrate our efficient QoS multicasting achievement. In addition, the future work will attempt to develop a multi-source-extension QoS multicast protocol in MANETs.
