Abstract:
This paper is an extension of our previous conference paper. In this paper, we propose a new routing protocol for named data networking (NDN) based ad hoc networks. One feature of our protocol is that it adopts a hybrid approach where a proactive routing is used in the producer side network and a reactive routing is used in the consumer side network. Another feature is that we focus only on the name prefix advertisement in the proactive routing. The result of performance evaluation focusing on the communication overhead shows that our proposal has a moderate overhead both for routing control messages and Interest packets compared with some of conventional NDN based ad hoc routing mechanisms proposed so far. The performance evaluation for a network configuration with a moving consumer node also shows the proposal realizes an effective content retrieval.
