Research on multi-path routing to provide improved throughput and route resilience as compared with singlepath routing has been explored in details in the context of wired networks. However, multi-path routing has not been explored thoroughly in the domain of ad hoc networks. In this paper, we analyze and compare reactive single-path and multi-path routing with load balance mechanisms in ad hoc...

This paper presents a novel reactive location routing algorithm based on cluster-based flooding for use in Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANET). We compare position-based and non-positionbased routing strategies in two typical traffic scenarios: urban and motorway. The mobility of vehicles using a microscopic traffic model developed in OPNET is used to evaluate the performance of the reactive Loca...

Globally, billion of devices in heterogeneous networks are interconnected by the Internet Things (IoT). IoT applications require a centralized decision-making system due to failure-prone connectivity and high latency such system. Low-latency communications primary characteristic applications. Since usually have small payload sizes, reducing communication overhead is crucial improving energy eff...

Mobile nodes of various routing protocols in Mobile Ad hoc Networks follow different strategies in transmission and receiving of data. Security, packet delivery and routing overhead are important concerns for any protocol during designing them. The presence and absence of malicious nodes in the network affect a lot on the performance of the protocol. This research is mainly focused on the study...

Bio-inspired routing protocols use the principle of swarm intelligence, which finds the optimal path to the destination in a distributed and autonomous way in dynamically changing environments; therefore, they can maximize the routing performance, reduce the control overhead, and recover a path failure quickly according to the change in the network topology. In this paper, we propose a bio-insp...

OLSR (Optimized Link State Routing) protocol is a priori Routing applied in MANET network. All nodes the network have information to other locally and need send large number of control messages maintain topology whole In UAV application scenarios, with increase node density, overhead will be too high problems hidden terminals intensified. Secondly, due fast moving speed UAVs, when neighboring U...

The nodes in Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) are mobile resulting in dynamic topology with high rate of link breakage and network partitions leading to interruptions in the ongoing communication. In contrast to wired network, MANET has increased possibility of packet loss and congestion resulting in energy consumption. Routing techniques help in path establishment for transmission. The existing r...

We propose a trust-threshold based routing protocol for delay tolerant networks, leveraging two trust thresholds for accepting recommendations and for selecting the next message carrier for message forwarding. We show that there exist optimal trust threshold values under which trust-threshold based routing performs the best in terms of message delivery ratio, message delay and message overhead....

Hybrid wireless networks support both Mobile Adhoc network (MANET) and Infrastructure wireless network. An efficient data routing protocol is important to improve the network efficiency. This efficient data routing protocol support hybrid wireless networks for high capacity and scalability. In this paper, we proposed Distributed Three-Hop Routing (DTR) protocol to improve the capacity of Hybrid...

been proposed to meet the QoS requirement of today's multimedia applications. These algorithms can be divided into two categories: source routing and distributed routing. In this paper, we propose a novel QoS routing algorithm, which is an integration of source routing and distributed routing. We introduce the concept of " Domain " which is a set of neighboring nodes and links. Each node has it...
