Based on the traditional DSR Protocols have obvious drawbacks such as low packet delivery rate and high routing overhead in the signal intensive UAV network. This paper introduces an improved DSR protocol（Restrict-DSR）. The new DSR protocol can save the space of node routing memory and reduce the routing overhead by limiting the maximum hop count of route request. Simulation results by NS2 show that the RE-DSR has improved the packet delivery ratio and decreased the average of packet end-to-end delay and routing overhead comparing with the conventional DSR Protocols in the signal intensive UAV network.
