Research on aviation ad hoc network routing protocols in highly dynamic and complex scenarios
With the rapid enlargement of the air transportation scale,the aviation ad hoc network(AANET)communication based on the civil aviation aircraft has possessed the capacities of communication network coverage.To find an effective means of important data transmission of aircraft nodes in highly dynamic and uncertain complex scenarios and backup them safely has become more important for improving the reliability and management abilities of the air-space-ground integrated network.However,the characteristics of the AANET,such as high dynamic change of network topology,large network span,and unstable network links,have brought severe challenges to the design of AANET protocols,especially the routing protocols.In order to facilitate the future research on the design of AANET routing protocols,this paper comprehensively analyzes the relevant requirements of AANET routing protocol design and investigates the existing routing protocols.First,according to characteristics of the AANET,this paper analyzes the factors,challenges,and design principles that need to be considered in the design of the routing protocols.Then,according to the design characteristics of existing routing protocols,this paper classifies and analyzes the existing routing protocols of the AANET.Finally,the future research focus of the routing protocols for the AANET is analyzed,so as to provide reference for promoting the research on the next generation of the air-space-ground integrated network in China.
