Abstract
A wireless ad-hoc network system may suffer from various types of hardware failure. In order to enhance the fault-tolerance and reliability of the wireless ad-hoc networks, we revisit the Byzantine Agreement problem in the zone-based wireless ad-hoc network in this paper. The proposed protocol is called as the Zone-Oriented Agreement Protocol (ZOAP) which can make each fault-free mobile processor reach an agreement value to cope with the faulty component in the zone-based wireless ad-hoc network.
