Improved routing algorithm with least channel handoff

How to improve the performance of the wireless Ad Hoc network by utilizing the spectrum resources efficiently based on multi-channel has become a hot research topic in recent years.In this paper,an On-Least Channel Handoff-DSDV(OLCH-DSDV) routing algorithm was proposed,which was based on the traditional DSDV protocol to reduce the channel handoff in the network.This algorithm used a channel allocation strategy with minimum channel handoff,so as to cut down the handoff delay.Thus it could reduce the average delay of the network while improving the system throughput.This routing algorithm requires the source node to select the best route with the minimum handoff channel according to the channel information maintained by itself.
