Adaptive Group-based QoS Aware Link State Proactive Multipath Routing for Large-Scale MANETs (GMP-OLSR)

摘要

Objectives: To propose a group-based QoS aware proactive multipath routing based on OLSR protocol. Methodology: This work proposes a group-based proactive multipath routing based on the OLSR protocol, which is designed to be adaptive for a big crowded Mobile Ad-hoc Network to satisfy the desire for real-time multimedia applications. This approach will restrict mobile nodes to be participated in the cluster head selection process based on the mobility and energy of a node. It uses a grouping strategy to manage the network topology and performing route maintenance, and preserve multiple prioritized routes with the support of Quality of Service (QoS) aware computation. Findings: The study evaluated the performance of the proposed group-based QoS aware multipath Optimal Link State Routing (GMP-OLSR) routing through the OMNET network simulation environment. Within different network density, the proposed approach offered a significant reduction in end to end delay, overhead and an increment in data packet delivery ratio Applications: Using an appropriate groupbased QoS aware multipath routing strategy for mobile ad hoc networks provides better performance and improves the services of mobile applications.
