Fisheye state routing: a routing scheme for ad hoc wireless networks
Guangyu Pei, Mário Gerla, Tsu-Wei Chen · 2002
This paper presents a novel routing protocol for wireless ad hoc networks-fisheye state routing (FSR). FSR introduces the notion of multi-level fisheye scope to reduce routing update overhead in large networks. Nodes exchange link state entries with their neighbors with a frequency which depends on distance to destination. From link state entries, nodes construct the topology map of the entire network and compute optimal routes. Simulation experiments show that FSR is a simple, efficient and scalable routing solution in a mobile, ad hoc environment.
