Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) are very considered attractive for many applications. Routing protocol is considered as the most important element of MANET. However, media streaming over MANET is a quite demanding task. In this paper the performances of MANET routing protocols have been investigated for video applications. Some popular routing protocols namely Dynamic Source Routing (DSR), Ad h...

Routing protocols for Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) have been extensively studied for more than fifteen years. Position-based routing protocols route packets towards the destination using greedy forwarding (i.e., an intermediate node forwards packets to a neighbor that is closer to the destination than itself). Different position-based protocols use different strategies to pick the neighbor t...

Protocols play a role in network connectivity and performance. The techniques for routing packets across a network vary among protocols. In this paper, a brief review of six protocols which are employed by Cisco systems were made and they are Open Shortest Path First(OSPF), Enhanced version of Interior Gateway Protoco(EIGRP)l, Routing Information Protocol(RIP), Open System Interconnection(OSI),...

The Dynamic Source Routing protocol (DSR) is a simple and efficient routing protocol designed specifically for use in multi-hop wireless ad hoc networks of mobile nodes. DSR allows the network to be completely self-organizing and self-configuring, without the need for any existing network infrastructure or administration. The protocol is composed of the two main mechanisms of "Route Discovery" ...

Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) are special kind of distributed networks that comprise wireless mobile nodes which can freely and dynamically self-organize into capricious and temporary manner. The demand for ubiquitous information access and spontaneous information exchange has multiplied considerably and with predictions to grow even more within the future. To satisfy this increasing demand, ...

Devices for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) are limited by power and thus routing protocols should be designed with this constrain in mind. WSNs are used in three dimensions (3D) scenarios such as surface of sea or lands with different level of highs. This paper presents and evaluates Three Dimensions Position Based Adaptive Real-Time Routing Protocol (3DPBARP) as a novel, real-time, position ba...

Because of several constraints in ad hoc networks, an adaptive ad hoc routing protocol is increasingly required. In this paper, we propose a synopsis of an adaptation process for an adaptive ad hoc routing protocol. Next, we put into practice the analysis of the process of adaptation to mobility by realizing an adaptive routing protocol: CSR (Cluster Source Routing) which is an extension of a w...

DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.59957 ABSTRACT Mobile ad-hoc network has been used in various areas for data transmission over long distances. These nodes have been configured with different movable equipments. There are two types of routing protocols for data communication that are Proactive and Reactive protocol. Proactive protocols are table driven protocol that selects the route from the routing table ...

Wireless Mesh Networks (WMN) is one of the implemented types of MANETs. WMN is wireless network, in which each node can communicate directly with one or other peer nodes. In generally, MANET routing protocols are used in WMN, it arises performance issues. In this paper, we propose a new routing protocol called, Elliptical routing protocol, which evaluates the performance via simulator. We show ...

This paper presents an algorithm to modify the Ad Hoc OnDemand Distance Vector (AODV) routing protocol in order to improve the routing performance in motorway surveillance systems. The proposed protocol has all the characteristics of the original AODV routing protocol since it follows all the steps of the route discovery and route maintenance mechanism of the original AODV routing protocol. The...
