A Shoelace-Based QoS Routing Protocol for Mobile Ad Hoc Networks Using Directional Antenna

Category: Software and Web Development, Networking and Communications

Overview This paper proposes a new QoS routing protocol for Mobile Ad hoc NETwork (MANET) using directional antenna. The scheme offers a bandwidth-based routing protocol for QoS support in MANET using the concept of multi-path. The MAC sub-layer adopts the CDMA-over-TDMA channel model. The QoS on-demand routing protocol determines the end-to-end bandwidth calculation and bandwidth allocation from a source node to a destination node. The paths are combined with multiple cross links, called as shoelace, when the network bandwidth is strictly limited. Due to the directional antenna property, these cross links can simultaneously transmit data without any data interference.
