A Circuit-based Approach for Routing in Unidirectional Links Networks

چکیده
Current routing protocols assume that routers are connected by bidirectional links. However, in an increasing number of conngurations, pairs of routers may only be connected by unidirectional links. Examples of such conngurations include ad-hoc packet radio networks, some satellite and cable networks, etc. Speciic protocols are needed to support dynamic routing over these conngurations. In this report, we rst discuss the applicability of current techniques to the support of dynamic routing in a network where all routers are connected by unidirectional links (UDLs). We show that these techniques cannot be used without modiications because of speciic UDL characteristics. We then present an unidirectional link routing protocol based on circuit detection which allows dynamic routing over unidirectional links, and describes its features and behaviour. Le Routage dans des RRseaux avec des Liens Unidirectionnels bass sur la ddcouverte de Circuits RRsumm : Les protocoles de routage actuels se basent sur l'hypothhse que les routeurs sont connectts deux deux par des liens bidirectionnels. Or, ceux-ci pourraient tre connectts par des liens unidirectionnels dans un nombre grandissant de situations, comme par exemple des rrseaux satellites, cablls ou radios. Ces conngurations nncessitent des protocoles spciiques pour supporter le routage dynamique. Ce rapport montre que les caracttristiques spciiques aus liens unidirectionnels ne permettent pas d'utiliser les techniques usuelles de routage. Nous prrsentons donc un protocole de routage bass sur une nouvelle approche, la ddcouverte de circuits, qui permet de faire du routage dynamique lorsque les liens sont unidirectionnels.

متن کاملLink-state Advertisement Based Source Routing Protocol for MANET with Unidirectional Links
In ad hoc networks, a communication link between two mobile nodes is not always bidirectional, i.e. unidirectional, since the different characters of networks and nodes. This paper studies unidirectional links which are general and universal in ad hoc networks and proposes a routing protocol LSARP (link-state advertisement based source routing protocol). LSARP can support unidirectional links t...
متن کاملA tunneling approach to routing with unidirectional links in mobile ad-hoc networks
Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) consist of a set of similar mobile nodes, communicating with each other using wireless links. As a node may not be able to directly reach every other node, a packet may need to traverse multiple wireless links from its source to its destination. Unidirectional links can occur in such networks. Several existing routing protocols implicitly assume bidirectional lin...
متن کاملA Routing Algorithm for Wireless Ad Hoc Networks with Unidirectional Links
Most of the routing algorithms for ad hoc networks assume that all wireless links are bidirectional. In reality, some links may be unidirectional. In this paper we show that the presence of such links can jeopardize the performance of the existing distance vector routing algorithms. We also present modi cations to distance vector based routing algorithms to make them work in ad hoc networks wit...
متن کاملUnidirectional Link-State Routing with Propagation Control
Unidirectional links can occur in wireless networks and mixed-media networks. However, the vast majority of routing algorithms proposed to date require bidirectional links to operate. We present an efficient link-state routing algorithm, which we call ULPC, that operates with unidirectional links. ULPC is based on the concept of “inclusive cycle” of a link, which is the distance that link-state...
