Automatic Optimisation of Reliable Collaborative Services in OLSR Mobile Ad Hoc Networks
Abstract
Future Network based Operations (NbO) will strongly rely on Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANET), due to urban area, tactical mobility and assymetric operation management. These networks will support multiple collaborative services, such as sensor to shooters, reachback, maintenance of Common Operational Picture (COP). Both networks and services will have to be managed with no or limited operator intervention, still providing reliable behavior in spite of aggressive environments. At routing level, we present how to preserve 2-connectivity by adapting the Optimised Link State Routing Protocol (OLSR). We also introduce the concept of active subnet management to retrieve maximal operational gain from collaborative services. Following a constraint solving method, the paper shows how to maximise the subnet of actors, while satisfying 2-connectivity, reactivity and communication quality constraints. We demonstrate the approach on simulating real world NbO.
