On multi-copy forwarding protocols for large data chunk dissemination in vehicular sensor networks

Abstract Moving vehicles have been sensing all kinds of data on the road in which multimedia data possesses a large portion. These data is often forwarded to vehicles in a region of interest or the monitoring center in an opportunistic manner. With respect to the large volume content, the storage sp...

description Abstract Moving vehicles have been sensing all kinds of data on the road in which multimedia data possesses a large portion. These data is often forwarded to vehicles in a region of interest or the monitoring center in an opportunistic manner. With respect to the large volume content, the storage space of relay vehicles is becoming the bottleneck of achieving higher performance, e.g., a data chunk may be rejected or dropped due to insufficient storage of intermediate vehicles. Thus, previous work that only focuses on the delivery metric without considering the data size is not likely to work efficiently in the proposed scenario. As deploying stationary infrastructures is of very large cost and not feasible everywhere, in this paper, we focus on the inter-vehicle data forwarding problem with storage and communication capacity constraints. First, we considered the situation when the vehicles are distributed sparsely. The multi-copy routing challenge is modeled as a multiple knapsack problem. Then, it is extended to a dense scenario. An optimization to the broadcast data forwarding is investigated. With the real data trace, the experiments show that our scheme achieves better performance than the competitors in terms of delay and delivery ratio. A better balance between duplication and performance is also achieved by the multi-copy algorithm.
