Agenda
Final Design Graph Algorithms Test Results Future Work Conclusion
Final Design
Removed packet simulationStatistics about topology more usefulFrom statistics, latency and delivery rates can
be estimatedEasier to implement graph algorithms
Did not implement BECA / AFECAWould require a source routing algorithmGAF and Span are independent of routing
Graph Algorithms
As nodes power cycle and move, the topology graph is updated
Run periodically through lifetime of system to collect statistics.

Algorithm Transition
Johnson Algorithm Finds all pairs, shortest path O( V2 log V + VE ) Can’t use it because of temporary node edges
Dijkstra Algorithm performed n2 times Finds all shortest paths to a node O( ( E + V ) log V ) with binary heap Again not taking advantage because of temporary node edges,
therefore inefficient Not necessary because hops are a weight of one.
Algorithm Transition (cont’d)
Breadth First Search performed n2 times Determines if a path exists between two nodes O( V + E ) When all edges weigh the same, finds shortest path Perfect for our needs
Ford-Fulkerson Determines max flow of network O( VE2 ) Don’t need to temporarily add edges We use this to determine number of unique paths in system
Test Setup
Using our AdHocSimulation program, we can run tests with a specified node type, random seed, number of nodes, radio range, maximum speed, and maximum travel distance before changing direction.
AdHocSimulation outputs a CSV file with the following columns: Time: The time (in seconds) since the start of the simulation that
this data snapshot was taken. Path probability: The percentage of pairs of nodes that currently
have a path between them. Average Hops: The average number of hops between nodes. Average number of unique paths between nodes: This is the
average maximum flow between all pairs of nodes. Percentage of nodes that have not drained all of their battery. Power remaining: The amount of power left in all nodes divided
by the total power capacity of all nodes in the system.

Basic Test Results
Both GAF and Span offer big savings in power over no power save protocol.GAF: 190-225% increase in lifetime over
unmodified.Span: 210-280% increase in lifetime over
unmodified. Both GAF and Span have better
performance with denser networks.

Density Test Results
A higher node density improves performance in both protocols.
Quadrupling the node density gave a 70% increase in network lifetime for Span and a 25% increase in the network lifetime for GAF.
The GAF authors claim that in some cases quadrupling node density increases network lifetime by 300-600%, but we did not see this with our simulations.

Movement Test Results
Node movement seems to improve the network lifetime of both algorithms. Nodes in sparsely populated areas move into dense
areas
Path probability can vary greatly, but GAF is the clear winner here. Why? GAF has more nodes on, so you have a
greater likelihood of another active node being nearby if your grid’s active node moves out of range.
Overall Test Results and Comments Span performs better than GAF in nearly all
measurements. While GAF can have more edge disjoint paths
between nodes, this is because it has more nodes on at any given time. We could modify Span to leave more nodes on and achieve similar results.
We were surprised by these results: It seems that GAF should an advantage with location awareness, but it appears that location awareness offers little to no advantage with power save protocols.
Future Work
Varying transmit power simulations More efficient statistical algorithms Fusion algorithm
Run Span on active GAF nodes Investigate fairness
Conclusion
Knowing geographical information doesn’t necessarily help you in terms of power saving.
Span seems to outperform GAF in most aspects.
A power safe protocol proves most beneficial for sensor networks, where many nodes can be dedicated to routing only.
