Abstract

Hybrid Wireless Networks are emerging as a promising new technology, benefiting from both fixed and ad-hoc networks technologies whilst alleviating some critical problems in these networks. Gateway discovery is one of the major components in order to realize a HWN, and it has to be optimized in order to release wireless resources for the data transmissions. In this sense, we apply biologically inspired metaphor to the Gateway Discovery problem in these networks, and present a new approach-Adaptive Distributed gateway Discovery with Swarm Intelligence (ADDSI). Simulations have been conducted to demonstrate the performance of the proposed approach and to compare it with certain existing schemes in terms of packet delivery ratio, average end-to-end delay and normalized routing overhead.
