Routing ???

selecting best paths in a network.

11

Challenges

Dynamic topology

Unidirectional Links

Power Constraints

12

Where to find

an answer ?

13

Ants Ants Everywhere

14

Ants

Can explore vast areas without global view of the ground.

Can find the food and bring it back to the nest.

Will converge to the shortest path.

15

Ants

Communication using pheromones.

Explored area is marked with pheromone

Other ants find explored path by sensing pheromones

Overview

Reactive path setup

Stochastic data routing

Proactive path maintenance and exploration

Handling of link failures

21

Data Structures

Pheromone Table

Neighbour Table

Each node has two tables

22

Pheromone Table

Regular Pheromone rijd

Virtual Pheromone wijd

Average Hop Count hijd

Helps in making routing decisions

23

Neighbour Table

Helps in identifying neighbours of a node

24

Reactive path setup

Occurs when path from source to destination is unknown.

32

Reactive Backward Ant

First ant to reach destination is made a backward ant.

It traverses the best path in reverse.

On the way the pheromone table is updated at all visiting nodes.

33

Reactive Backward Ant

Hop count is updated as

Regular pheromone is updated as

34

Data Routing

Once path is setup data is stochastically routed.

Proactive Path Maintenance

Pheromone Dissolution

End to End path sampling

37

Pheromone Dissolution

Every node broadcasts a hello message to all neighbours.

The pheromone table is piggybacked to the hello packet.

38

End to End Path Sampling

While the session is active proactive ant agents explore to find additional paths.

Proactive ants like forward ants update pheromone table when it becomes a backward ant.

39

Link Failures

Hello messages help to find link failures.

The link failure is notified to all nodes by flooding.

Repair ants try to find alternate path to destination if failure is in the midst of a transmission.

40

Advantages

Automatic load Balancing.

Higher Delivery ratio.

Robust , Adaptive and scalable.
