Enhanced Multipath Ad-Hoc Routing With Indirect Key Based Architecture

Abstract

ad hoc networks contain a collection of wireless nodes which communicate among themselves without the exigency of fixed infrastructure. Limited transmittal span of wireless network nodes causes multiple hops to share information with any other node in the network. The multipath routing scheme provides better performance and scalability .In this research, we target on implementing a mechanisms for ad hoc networks by using resources of both traditional and innovative addressing scheme.

 To contribute a expansible mapping between transient addresses and node identifiers, we adopt a novel routing paradigm, the dynamic way based on key search. In this paper, we address to significant message overhead and redundancy issues by integrating both traditional way of routing direct routing and key-based indirect routing at the network layer. Unlike procedures used in traditional routing that, at the best, single out a unique route, we also explore the feasibleness of multi-path routing, which consists of proactively discovering several alternative routes towards the same destination. In this paper we define an analytical framework to evaluate the performance gain achieved by multi-path routing resorting to the hierarchical routing.
