Abstract:

In order to solve the problem that the existing algorithms have poor fault tolerance when recovering the partition connectivity, we propose a double connectivity recovery algorithm in partition (DCRA). The algorithm aims at building a backbone polygon in the center area of the network and connecting partitions with the polygon by two disjoint paths to realize double connectivity between partitions. Simulation experiments show that compared with some existing double connectivity algorithms, the proposed algorithm cannot only reduce the number of deployed relay nodes and the running time of the algorithm by about 60%, but also quickly determine the location of the relay nodes so as to quickly recovery partition connectivity.

Key words: double connectivity, fault tolerance, backbone polygon, relay node
