Autonomous Mobile Mesh Networks for Missed Node Detection Using Enhanced R-Tree Topology

Abstract

Generally, in a static network, the shortest path from a source to a destination is usually the optimal route, but this scenario is not easily extended to Mobile Ad-hoc Networks because it need efficient distributed algorithms to determine the network organization, link scheduling and routing. Autonomous Mobile Mesh Network (AMMNET) has been introduced to address this weakness and AMMNET mobile mesh nodes are capable of following the mesh clients and organizing themselves into a suitable network topology to ensure good connectivity and monitoring for both intra and inter-group mobile clients communications by assigning routers for each domain in a network. Basically the routers in stationary wireless mesh networks are deployed at fixed locations, where AMMNET routers are mobile platforms with autonomous movement capability. Even though, it moves dynamically AMMNET routers are failing to search the disappeared mobile clients once they go out of domain. This research work proposes a distributed client tracking solution to deal with the dynamic nature of client mobility and present techniques for finding disappeared mobile clients, minimizing routing paths and channel overlapping using enhanced R-Tree topology
