A Resource Distribution Algorithm Based on Node Factors of Transmission for Ad Hoc Network

Wireless communication network has such features as limited bandwidth, changeful channel and dynamic topology, etc. Ad hoc network has lots of difficulties in accessing control, bandwidth distribution, resource assign and congestion control. Therefore, a wireless resource distributing algorithm based on communication transmission performance factors is proposed in the paper. The algorithm makes quantitative and qualitative analysis for influencing factors of transmission performance, as a result, node resource distribution "relative unfairness" is introduced to realize resource re-distribution while network resource is changing. At the same time, in order to ensure fairness of data transmission and timeliness of network packets, transmitting priority levels for each data packets are established based on latency time and its original priority level in the node. The simulation results show that the algorithm can ensure fairness and timeliness of network transmission, as well as improve ad hoc network resource integrated utilization efficiency.
