Abstract(in English) In ad hoc networks, it is hard to realize the centralized management of network state, and dynamic changes of the network topology caused by the terminals' mobility may increase the traffic load on a certain terminal or in a certain location. As concerns this problem, some routing mechanisms to balance the network load have been proposed. However, it is hard to adapt them to the environment where the traffic changes in a short period. Furthermore, these conventional methods only consider the load on the transmission routes. For achieving efficient load balancing in ad hoc networks, this paper proposes a load balancing method based on the activity of neighbouring terminals. The proposed method controls the transmission rate depending on the states of the neighbouring terminals and of the transmission route. The performance and efficiency of the proposed method is also clarified by computer simulation.
