Abstract

Without considering current residual resources of the medium, nodes in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) admit the data flow arbitrarily, and the quality of service (QoS) of the data flows deteriorates. To release the contending on the resources induced by the overloaded flows, the admission control mechanism can effectively keep the balance between injected data flows and network capacity, and it is viewed as the most important technology in MANET. A novel distributed residual resources aware admission control mechanism is proposed in this paper, where the residual resources and the service rate are studied thoroughly. Considering the medium utilization, frame retransmission and backoff procedure, the passive method is applied to predict the residual resources, and the binomial distribution is utilized to model the medium status; moreover, based on the cooperation between the source node and intermediate nodes, the path meeting the resource demand is probed across the network, and the flows are rejected while the residual resources cannot meet its demand. Results show that the network load can be constrained by our proposed admission control mechanism, and the QoS of the data flows can be guaranteed effectively.
