Abstract

It is well known that obstacles like ruins will appear after disaster and it degrades performance of the message forwarding. Hence we propose a scheme to keep communication performance. By the proposal, nodes in the disaster affected area can decide whether there are obstacles around itself, and then change its message routing strategy to successfully forward the message with bypassing the obstacle. According to performance evaluations, we clarify that our scheme has better resistance to obstacles, while keeping higher delivery ratio, low end-to-end latency, and the use of energy, respectively.

Notes

  1. 1.

    The mobile nodes only within specified range can forward messages.

  2. 2.

    This is a clustering method which can divide a group into sets of children group by use of Euclidean distance.

  3. 3.

    R is the transmission range of nodes.

  4. 4.

    A kind of control information which can relay the critical message after delay time.

  5. 5.

    The Tyson polygon is also called the Voronoi diagram, named after George Voronoi. It is a set of continuous polygons composed of vertical bisectors connecting two adjacent points.

  6. 6.

    Triangulation is the most basic research method in algebraic topology. Taking a curved surface as an example, the curved surface can be cuting to pieces, each piece of which is a curved triangle.

  7. 7.

    The time stamp of message will be updated to the current time point of the forwarding every time the message is forwarded, and it will be updated at both the sender and the receiver at the same time.

  8. 8.

    The vector direction mentioned in Fig. 1 is considered as horizon.
