Evaluación de desempeño de protocolos de enrutamiento AODV y OLSR en redes Ad-Hoc aeronáuticas, para tráfico aéreo dentro del área de control Quito

Abstract

The surge and advancement of aeronautical activity gradually demand more and more connectivity services in accordance with the specific requirements of this discipline. Today, aircraft can share information through satellite systems and ground infrastructure with limited capacity in terms of air traffic services, operational control, administrative control, as well as connectivity and internet services on board. The use of new technologies such as Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks (MANET) can solve some of the requirements for air navigation connectivity. In particular, Ad-Hoc networks present some advantages such as: distributed operation, no need for satellite or ground infrastructure and low operating costs. This new type of mobile Ad-Hoc networks are called AANET (Aeronautical Ad-Hoc Networks), which by their nature have other challenges such as high-speed nodes, large distances, and limited bandwidth.In this work, the evaluation of classic Ad-Hoc protocols designed for traditional mobile Ad-Hoc networks (MANET) such as AODV and OLSR in aeronautical Ad-Hoc networks is carried out under the application of realistic mobility patterns in Quito’s control area. The study will be carried out through a realistic simulation of the Ad-Hoc protocols described above, which will allow evaluating their characteristics and possible application in the aeronautical environment, contributing to the Ei-Roads study as a complementary part of air transport in Ecuador.
