USE OF LOCATION AIDED ALGORITHM USING WI-FI IN INDOOR AD-HOC SYSTEMS

Mobile Ad-Hoc networks are designed to establish a network anytime and anywhere.Unlike other networks, ad-hoc does not require a fixed infrastructure.There are various routing techniques which are related to ad-hoc networking like Destination Sequenced Distance Vector Protocol (DSDV), Dynamic Source Routing Protocol (DSR) and Ad-Hoc On Demand Distance Vector Protocol (AODV).One such routing protocol named Location Aided Routing uses GPS (Global Positioning System) to get the coordinates of the nodes which would assist in routing.There is a definite set of drawbacks where GPS is used to get the location for the nodes in the ad-hoc network which is implemented indoor.In this paper, we propose an alternative of using Wi-Fi Positioning System to get the location of the co-ordinates which may prove to be a better solution than GPS indoor.
