AODV based on Vickrey Auction for Wireless Mesh Networks

In this paper, we propose routing protocol based on Vickrey Auction for selfish nodes in Wireless Mesh Networks. Our approach is to promote Vickrey Auction bidding to stimulate selfish nodes forwarding data packets in wireless mesh networks. A new routing metric is proposed to improve existed least-hop metric. Simulation results indicate that AODV-B reduces packet-loss rate at the expense of small delay.
