A reliable, efficient topology broadcast protocol for dynamic networks

Energy optimization for proactive unicast route maintenance in MANETs under end-to-end reliability requirements

“…Further, it allows higher scalability of the proactive protocols with increased network size.

“…Triggering Route Updates for every change in the Link Status (TRULS): This operation performs update of route information across the network whenever there is a change in the status of a link in a route. Flooding of the route-update messages takes place to diffuse the updates across the network [5,22]. In the rest of the paper, we use the terms 'broadcasting' and 'flooding' interchangeably.…”

“…Proactive protocols with all the operations (PP+BTP 1 ): In this approach, all the three aforementioned operations are performed. Protocols, in this category, include the Destination Sequenced Distance Vector (DSDV) [22], and the Topology Broadcast based on Reverse Path Forwarding (TBRPF) [5]. Although the PUR operation may seem redundant because of the employment of TRULS, it has a certain significance.…”

Cross Layered Multi-Meshed Tree Scheme for Cognitive Networks

“…Optimized Link State Routing (OLSR) [18 -20, 28] reduces control overhead of topology discovery messages by using selected one-hop nodes as 'multi-point relays'. Topology Broadcast Reverse Path forwarding (TBRPF) [27] propagates link-state updates in the reverse direction on a spanning tree formed from all nodes to the source node.…”

The impact of topology update strategies on the performance of a proactive MANET routing protocol

“…IARP [6] and the fast-OLSR extension [2] set the update intervals inversely proportional to the maximum velocity of the nodes. TBRPF [1] generates two types of updates: full-topology periodic updates and differential updates. DSDV [8] advertises the routing information periodically and incrementally as topological changes are detected.…”
