Abstract

In mobile ad hoc networks, radio interference and mobility of nodes may degrade the packet arrival rate due to the dynamic topological change. Then, traditional reactive routing protocols may cause huge network resource consumption due to the route request flooding for discovering the destination. To solve the above issue, flooding area restriction methods can reduce the unnecessary control messages to narrow the flooding area based on the location information. However, each node must share location information before sending route requests via control messages. Besides, it is also difficult to share the correct location information of nodes due to the mobility of nodes. This paper proposes a flooding area restriction method to reduce the unnecessary control messages to determine the flooding area by sharing the location information via a mobile network. In addition, computer simulations reveal the effectiveness of the proposed method in comparison with a traditional routing protocol.
