A Link-State-Aware Ad Hoc On-demand Distance Vector(AODV) Routing Protocol for Mobile Ad Hoc Networks
XinHao Yu, Yu Ouyang · 2006
To improve the performance of routing protocol in network with unidirectional links, various routing protocols supporting unidirectional links have been proposed, that enhances the robustness of the network remarkably. In this paper a link-state-aware on-demand distance vector routing protocol is presented to solve the incapacity of original AODV in presence of unidirectional links. Simulation results show that the routing protocol possesses more robustness against unidirectional links than AODV and costs less time to establish route in average.
