Location Aware Discovery Service and Selection Protocol in Cooperative Mobile Wireless Ad Hoc Networks
Janine Kniess, Orlando Loques, Célio V. N. Albuquerque · 2009
Service selection in service discovery protocols has an important effect on wireless multi-hop ad hoc networks (MANETs) performance. This work proposes a service selection mechanism based on localization to reduce the redundant replies in these protocols. The mechanism dynamically selects the best resource providers during the reply transmissions taking into account geographic distance, speed and the number of service providers requested. Another issue addressed in this work is a service discovery mechanism that adjusts a search area for each request takes into account localization, the request response time and the nodes speed.
