Rationale for the Use of Link Metrics in the Optimized Link State Routing Protocol
نویسنده
چکیده
The Optimized Link State Routing Protocol version 2 (OLSRv2) includes the ability to assign metrics to links and to use those metrics to allow routing by other than minimum hop count routes. This document provides a historic record of the rationale for, and design considerations behind, how link metrics were included in OLSRv2.

Improving Quality of Service Routing in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks Using OLSR
Mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) are constructed by mobile nodes without access point. Since MANET has certain constraints, including power shortages, an unstable wireless environment and node mobility, more power-efficient and reliable routing protocols are needed. The OLSR protocol is an optimization of the classical link state algorithm. OLSR introduces an interesting concept, the multipoint r...
متن کاملComparative Performance Analysis of AODV,DSR, TORA and OLSR Routing Protocols in MANET Using OPNET
Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) are receiving a significant interest and are becoming very popular in the world of wireless networks and telecommunication. MANETs consist of mobile nodes which can communicate with each other without any infrastructure or centralized administration. In MANETs, the movement of nodes is unpredictable and complex; thus making the routing of the packets challenging....
متن کاملUsing Multiple Metrics with the Optimized Link State Routing Protocol for Wireless Mesh Networks
Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) can be used in many different applications. However, they lack standards and, as a consequence, a number of issues must still be addressed to ensure the proper functioning of these networks. Amongst these issues, routing is this paper’s main concern. Thus, we propose the use of multiple metrics with the proactive Optimized Link State Routing (OLSR) protocol, in ord...
متن کاملImpact of Random Mobility Models on Olsr
In ad hoc networks, routing plays a pertinent role. Deploying the appropriate routing protocol is very important in order to achieve best routing performance and reliability. Equally important is the mobility model that is used in the routing protocol. Various mobility models are available and each can have different impact on the performance of the routing protocol. In this paper, we focus on ...
متن کاملTopology Control Mechanism Based on Link Available Probability in Aeronautical Ad Hoc Network
In this paper; we consider traffic network with high-speed mobility nodes scenario; and give a new network topology control mechanism to rise the routing path duration in Aeronautical ad hoc network. The mechanism can use different methods to construct topology according to the node densities. For network regions having a high density of aircraft; the packets are preferentially routed over the ...
