Mesh Based Multicast Routing in MANET

This document discusses a mesh-based multicast routing protocol for mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) called Link Stability based Multicast Routing in MANET (LSMRM). LSMRM constructs a multicast mesh using route request and reply packets that maintain routing information and link stability data at each node. It finds stable paths by selecting stable forwarding nodes with high link connectivity stability. The mesh is maintained to avoid link failures.

MESH BASED MULTICAST ROUTING IN MANET : STABLE LINK APPROACH

SHUBHAM MANDAL 1JS09IS059

ABSTRACT

The multicast mesh is constructed by using route

request and route reply packets with the help of


multicast routing information cache and link stability database maintained at every node.

The stable paths are found based on selection of stable forwarding nodes that have high stability of link

connectivity.

Mesh maintenance is done to avoid link failures.

INTRODUCTION

An ad-hoc network is self-organizing and adaptive. Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) has become one of the most prevalent areas of research in the recent years because of the vulnerabilities .

MANET is the new emerging technology which enables users to communicate without any physical infrastructure regardless of their geographical location.

The mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs)

do not have fixed network

infrastructure, nodes can act as both host and router, nodes may be mobile, nodes may have limited resources, limited battery life and they have capability

of self organization.

Mesh maintenance and handling link failures.

CONTROL PACKETS

Route Request Packets Route Reply Packets

Route Error Packets

The fields of RR packet are as follows:


Source address

Multicast group address


Sequence number Route Request flag

Previous node address


Power Antenna gain

LINK STABILITY DATABASE

Each node maintains a link database information which helps in establishing and maintaining destinations.

It maintains the following parameters:


Node ID

Power Level
Distance Link quality Stability factor

MULTICAST MESH CREATION


Multicast mesh creation involves two phases: Request phase Reply phase

Request Phase: A source finds the multicast routes to its receivers by using RR packets.

fig1. Route request path from S to R1 and R2

Reply phase : In reply phase, RP packet is generated at a multicast receiver after receiving a RR packet.

fig2. Reply paths from R1 to S

fig3. Reply paths from R2 to S

Finally, the created mesh between source S and multicast receivers R1 and R2 with x and y as forwarding nodes is shown in figure 4

STABLE PATH FINDING IN A MESH

In LSMRM, SFN selection among all forwarding nodes in the mesh is done by a forwarding node by checking higher value of stability factor Sij in its MRIC.

MESH MAINTENANCE

LSMRM detects two types of link


failures:

Link failure between SFN nodes


Link failure between a multicast

source/receiver and a SFN

MANET APPLICATION

Military Battlefield
Commercial Sector

Local Level
Personal Area Network (PAN)

CONCLUSION

The stability based multicast routing scheme in MANET finds the multicast routes to receivers by using route request and route reply packets with the help of routing information maintained in MRIC and link stability parameters maintained in link stability database on every node in a MANET.

This scheme has significant improvement in terms of


reliability, security, QoS, control overhead.
