Novel multi-path routing scheme for UWB Ad hoc network

Abstract

The routing protocols play an important role for ad hoc networks performance.As some problems with DSR,SMR,and AMR protocols were analyzed,a new routing protocol suitable for UWB Ad hoc networks was proposed in this paper.The new routing protocol utilize an act of orientation of UWB and tries to get sufficient route information and decrease the network load caused by route discovery at the same time.Simulation results show that the routing load of the new protocol is lower and throughput is higher than that of DSR.While the node’s mobility increases,these advantages become more obvious.
