CALDUEL: Cost And Load overhead reDUction for routE discovery in LOAD ProtocoL

摘要

Internet of Things (IoT) is a backboneless network. Because of the uni-directional link and mobility nature of the nodes, the network is dynamic. The nodes are self-organized and two nodes can transfer data directly when they are within the transmission range. The nodes in IoT are self-organized and dynamic so MANET routing plays a vital role. The Light weight Ad hoc On-demand Distance Vector (LOAD) is a reactive routing protocol. In LOAD, the routing involves three major processes namely route discovery, path establishment, and route maintenance. The route discovery is carried out by Route REQuest (RREQ), Route REPly (RREP), and Route ERRor (RERR) control packets. The cost of the route discovery is estimated by control packets propagation. The proposed technique Cost And Load overhead reDUction for routE discovery in LOAD ProtocoL (CALDUEL) is proposed to reduce the load overhead, by reducing the cost of route discovery.
