Improvement of AODV routing protocol
Ming Cai · Computer Engineering and Applications Journal · 2012
When establishing new route,AODV routing protocol chooses route with the minimum hop,without considering the load of node,and when node moves faster,the performance degenerates severely.To address this situation,an improved protocol with improved route discovery and route maintenance phase is presented.It selects route based on the load of node and can optimize the route according to network topology dynamically,to reduce the negative influence of dynamic change of network topology.Results obtained through simulations demonstrate that the improved protocol is better than AODV in reducing network congestion and packet loss rate.
