| Abstract | ETX (Expected Transmission Count) is shown to be the best link metric in terms of higher throughput for wireless multi-hop network with stationary-nodes having single radio. Some recent work, however, shows that ETX may exhibit high sensitivity to interference and a single TCP flow can increase the metric value by 10000% [1]. Such a change indicates that routing protocols, based on ETX, might be playing with random numbers without bringing any significant benefits of considering link quality. It is suggested that broadcast-based estimation of ETX could be the major cause of sensitivity as other metrics based on unicast probing method did not show similar performance degradation [1]. Several proposals came forward so far focusing on better estimation techniques of ETX metric mostly using unicast probing combined with cross-layer information; however, we have not seen any investigation study as to why does broadcast-based method result in inaccurate estimation of ETX. This paper presents preliminary results of an investigation study about the sensitivity of ETX estimation based on broadcast probing and compare it with the one based on unicast probing. It is work-in-progress. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
