  16. Outline • Overview of Research at ESNL • Energy Aware Protocols • Congestion Control • Routing • Conclusions

  17. Performance Requirements • Congestion causes • Reduced channel capacity • Energy wastage • QoS suffers • Throughput, network efficiency • Delay , jitter • Fairness • Energy-efficiency • Proposed scheme consists of • Congestion prediction and control mechanisms to prevents buffer overflows • Fairness mechanism

  18. Congestion in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) • Congestion can be a result of: • Channel fading • Traffic exceeding channel capacity • Note: Typical WSN has only one “sink”

  19. Ways of Alleviating Congestion • Energy aware congestion control • Adaptive Back off Interval scheme • Adaptive energy delay routing * Cross Layer Design is needed

  20. Background • Sensor versus ad hoc • Processing, memory communication and energy constrains in WSN in contrast to ad hoc networks • Previous works • End-to-end protocols (e.g. TCP) • Drawback of large feedback latency (round-trip) • CODA, Fusion • Small processing overhead • Congestion message is broadcasted to throttle traffic, with sources reducing introduced traffic • Use fixed thresholds to initiate flow control • Dropping packets when the congestion occurs

  21. Objectives of Congestion Control • Detection of the congestion and an onset of one • Channel estimation from Distributed Power Control (DPC - our previous work) predicts severe fading and temporarily suspend outgoing and incoming flows • Buffer occupancy used to control incoming/outgoing flows • Quality of Service (QoS) • Weighted Fairness expressed as: where W – throughput, φ – weight • Congestion control using backpressure – a set of three proposed schemes (described later) (1)

  22. Proposed Scheme • Rate-based congestion control with weights changed adaptively • Rate selection to prevent buffer overflow • Rate allocation to flows according to weights (using fair scheduling) • Selection of back-off interval to achieve the selected rate (predictive, distributed, mathematically guaranteed) • (OPTIONAL) Adaptive weights allocated to each packet to improve weighted fairness • Adaptive re-calculation of weights for each packet • Fair scheduling and rate allocation to flows based on adopted weights

  23. Buffer occupancy and Error Dynamics • Consider buffer occupancy at a particular node • where T is the measurement interval, qi(k) is the buffer occupancy of node ‘i’ at time instant k, ui(k) is a regulated (incoming) traffic rate, and fi(k) is an outgoing traffic rate. • Consider the desired buffer occupancy at node i to be qid. Then, buffer occupancy error defined as ei(k)=qi(k)-qid can be expressed as (2) (3)

  24. Rate Selection • Define the traffic rate input, ui(k) as where kv is a gain parameter. • Unknown outgoing traffic is estimated using adaptive scheme where the parameter vector is updated • Selected incoming rate is divided fairly (φj)among incoming flows (4) (5)

  25. Theorem: Ideal Case

  26. Simulation Results for Rate-based Buffer Control Queue utilization and estimation of the outgoing flow. Queue utilization error and outgoing traffic estimation error.

  27. Adaptive Back-off Selection Algorithm • Goal Select back-off interval BOi at i-th transmitting node such that the actual throughput meets the desired outgoing rate fi(k). • Consider inverse of the back-off interval, and call it a virtual rate VRi where VRi is the virtual rate at i-th node, and BOi is the corresponding back-off interval. • NOTE: the virtual rate is not equal to the actual rate; instead, the virtual rate is proportional to the actual rate. (6)

  28. Outgoing Rate Selection • The actual rate of an i-th node is a fraction of the channel bandwidth B(t) defined as where TVRi is the sum of all virtual rates for all neighbor nodes. • Differentiating and transforming into discreet time domain the outgoing rate is equal where (7) (8) (9)

  29. Closed-loop Control of Backoff Selection • Now consider feedback equation for closed-loop controller where âi(k) is estimate of ai(k), and ei(k)=qi(k)-qid is the throughput error • Parameters updates taken as • The closed loop throughput error system with estimation error, ε(k), as (10) (11) (12)

  30. Convergence and Stability • Theorem (General case): • Given the back-off selection scheme above with an interval updated as (10), and with uncertainties estimated by (11), with ε(k) as the error in estimation which is considered bounded above , with εN a known constant. • Then the mean error in throughput and the estimated parameters are bounded provided and hold • where , Kvmax is the maximum singular values of Kv, and σ is the adaptation gain.

  31. Simulation Results Performance for unbalanced tree topology. Weighted delay with equal flow weights (const=0.2).

  32. Impact on Routing Protocol • Hardware limitation explored • Memory limits queue size • Processing limits number of connections that can be handled (also for information aggregation) • Localized congestion • For example due to electro–magnetic interferences • Can be mitigated by selecting a alternative route around the congested area

  33. OEDSR • Optimal Energy Delay Sub-Network Routing (OEDSR) protocol • Maximizes Link Cost Factor (LCF) to perform optimal routing based on network parameters • LCF is given by • Where Ei is the energyin the next node, Di is the delay, and xi is the distance from the next node to the base station • Cluster heads (CH) and relay nodes (RN) are used to route data from a data source to the base station (BS) • Implemented on UMR hardware

  36. Modification to OEDSR • Link Preference Factor (LPF) • Load factor i is for balancing load by distributing traffic between several nodes • where, Fi is the maximum designed capacity of a node i, and fi is the current load at node i (measured in number of flows routed at the node)

  37. Experimental Results for Routing Protocol BS Relaynodes Sources • Simple topology used to verify claim of balancing load between two relay nodes versus sending the traffic through one node only

Conclusions • Analytical and simulation results show that the proposed scheme • Increases throughput • Guarantee desired QoS and weighted fairness • Also during congestion and fading channels. • The proposed scheme mitigates congestion using a hop by hop mechanism for throttling packet flow rate • The convergence analysis is demonstrated by using a Lyapunov-based analysis • Experimental results show that Congestion-aware routing protocol improves performance of the resource constrained network
