A group-based stable routing algorithm in MANETs
Two of the critical issues consist of the design of scalable routing algorithms of MANETs that are robust to frequent path disruptions caused by nodes mobility and reduce the routing overhead. This paper argues grouping nodes with the motion direction of source to limit the range of RREQ broadcast. This kind of grouping ensures that nodes, belonging to the same group, are more likely to establish stable paths as they are moving similarly. In route discovery, only the nodes which are in the same group with source are allowed to rebroadcast the received RREQ, and with the forward of RREQ, the stability of route is evaluated. So the destination can select a most stable route to reply. The performance of the scheme is evaluated through computer simulations based on NS2. Simulation results indicate the proposed routing algorithm can improve performance effectively.
