Most routing protocols focus on obtaining a workable route without considering network traffic condition for a mobile ad hoc network (MANET).Therefore, the quality of service (QoS) is not easily achieved by the real time or multimedia applications.To support QoS, this work proposes a QoS-aware routing protocol that incorporates an admission control scheme into route discovery and route setup.A dual-card dual-signal mechanism is adopted to increase system performance.Simulation results show the proposed protocol can more significantly improve packet delivery ratio, throughput (in heavy load), as well as reduce average end-to-end delay than routing protocols without QoS support can.
