Design of DAODV MANET Routing Protocol

Ad-hoc networking is a concept in computer communications, which means that users wanting to communicate with each other form a temporary network, without any form of centralized administration. Each node participating in the network acts both as a host and as a router. The study of distributed network and mobile ad hoc network (MANET) are currently two hotspots in distributed computing and mobile communication researching domain. We build up a distributed overlay network on top of MANET's physical infrastructure, to effectively integrate distributed network’s advantage on sustaining highly dynamic network into the design of MANET routing protocol. We deploy passive MANET routing algorithms with innovative distributed routing mechanisms. We propose a new kind of MANET routing protocol named distributed Computing based ad-hoc on demand routing (DAODV). Our work indicates that DAODV has an improved routing performance in comparison with the popularly used AODV protocol.
