An Improved Method for Maintenance Scheme of an Inter-Zone Route
Jing Wu, Guang Xue Meng, Zhen Guo Chen, De Sheng Cao · Applied Mechanics and Materials · 2014
In ad hoc networks, the maintenance scheme of an inter-zone route in ZRP (Zone Routing Protocol) makes ZRP take less reliability, more transmission delay and more routing overheads. Aiming at the problem above, BSRZRP (Backup Segment Routes based Zone Routing Protocol) was proposed. In BSRZRP, an inter-zone route was repaired by using backup segment routes as much as possible when an inter-zone route-link opened. This improved method is favor to improve protocol reliability and reduce transmission delay and routing overheads of protocol.
