SBIR Phase I: A Secure and Scalable QoS-aware Routing Algorithm for Ad Hoc Wireless Networks

这项小企业创新研究（SBIR）第一阶段将为自组织无线网络开发一种新颖、安全和可扩展的服务质量（QoS）感知路由算法。该算法利用了多种无线路由优化技术和轻量级安全机制。本研究还将扩展路由算法，以支持ad hoc无线网络中的组播。拟议的路由算法将通过促进和增加在难以建立固定基础设施或集中管理的地点建立可靠的通信网络的特设无线网络的适应性，从而减少建立通信基础设施的成本。这些地点的例子包括会议、演讲、人群控制剧院、搜索和救援剧院、灾难和恢复剧院以及战场。

This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I will develop a novel, secure and scalable Quality of Service (QoS)-aware routing algorithm for ad hoc wireless networks. The algorithm utilizes several wireless routing optimization techniques and lightweight security mechanisms. This research will also extend the routing algorithm to support multicast in ad hoc wireless networks.The proposed routing algorithm will permit reduction in the cost of building communication infrastructures by facilitating and increasing the adpatation of ad hoc wireless networks for building reliable communication networks in locations where it is difficult to establish fixed infrastructure or centralized administration. Examples of such locations are conferences, lectures, crowd control theaters, search and rescue theaters, disaster and recovery theaters, and battlefields.
