Improving the Route Acquisition Time of MANET Routing Using AODV Protocol

U. Hemavathi

Abstract


Mobile ad-hoc network is a collection of wireless mobile hosts forming a temporary network without the aid of any stand-alone infrastructure or centralized administration. Mobile ad-hoc network have the attributes such as wireless connection, continuously changing topology, distributed operation and ease of deployment. In this paper it is suggested that a cross-layer feedback mechanism from the Medium Access Control (MAC) layer to the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) module. By comparing the performance of proposed scheme MAC-ARP with the ARP using the AODV MANET protocol, it reduces the route Acquisition time and improve the performance of the Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANETs) routing protocol. Simulation of this work is carried out in NS2.
