Dynamic Source Routing Protocol Based on Cluster
Xuemei Sun · Jisuanji fangzhen · 2006
A mobile ad hoc network(MANET) is a self-organized and self-configured multi-hop wireless network,whose structure changes dynamically due to member mobility. The paper firstly introduces the cluster and brings forward a CDSR,which is based on the WCA and uses for reference the advantages of on-demand routing in DSR protocol.Then,it introduces CDSR.CDSR route discovery is realized from one Cluster Header to another and the communication between the Clusters recurs to Cluster Headers(no existing Gateway Node).Meanwhile,it analyzes and evaluates the performances of CDSR routing protocol and DSR routing protocol under the GloMoSim simulator,comes to the conclusion that compared with DSR,the CDSR has the advantages of higher delivery rate and throughput,lower delay,better expansibility.Therefore,CDSR is more suitable for the large-scale self-organized wireless network.CDSR problems are discussed finally.
