A New Timing Zone Routing Protocol (TZRP) for Ad Hoc Networks

摘要

To effectively support communication in such a dynamic networking environment as the ad hoc networks, the rou framework has to be adaptable to the spatial and temporal changes in the characteristics of the network. Zone Routing Protocc proposed for the problem of dynamic topology changes and limited-bandwidth of Ad hoc networks, and both proactive and reac routing protocols proved to be inefficient under these circumstances. In ZRP ,a node proactively maintains routes to destinations wi a routing zone. It uses proactive routing in the zone and the reactive routing outside the zone. This paper improves ZRP by updating zone with time, thereby it reduces the overlaps of each zone, and it can also avoid the confliction of information and enhance the u: rate of network.
