AbstractResearch has been conducted on wireless network single link failures. However, cascaded link failures due to fraudulent attacks have not received enough attention, whereas this requires solutions. This research developed an enhanced genetic algorithm (EGA) focused on capacity efficiency and fast restoration to rapidly resolve link-link failures. On complex nodes network, this fault-tolerant model was tested for such failures. Optimal alternative routes and the bandwidth required for quick rerouting of video traffic were generated by the proposed model. Increasing cascaded link failures increases bandwidth usage and causes transmission delay, which slows down video traffic routing. The proposed model outperformed popular Dijkstra models, in terms of time complexity. The survived solution paths demonstrate that the proposed model works well in maintaining connectivity despite cascaded link failures and would therefore be extremely useful in pandemic periods on emergency matters. The proposed technology is feasible for current business applications that require high-speed broadband networks.
