  Abstract

This paper considers adding a new route maintenance protocol to the typical Ad-Hoc On-Demand Distance Vector (AODV) protocol to overcome the shortcomings of AODV and improve routing performances. To this end, we enhance the existing AODV protocol by adding a destination-initiated flooding (DIF) scheme that generates a periodic flooding at a destination after the initial routing setup. The proposed routing protocol first obtains additional routing information for the destination without overhead through overhearing and determines the one-hop neighbor nodes around the shortest path between source and destination. Then, the destination starts flooding to obtain the latest route information according to the topology change. This DIF involves only one-hop neighbor nodes around the shortest path in flooding, which significantly reduces the conventional flooding overhead and forms multiple alternate paths around the shortest path. This makes it possible to seamlessly route to the newest shortest path around when the current routing path is disconnected or old-fashioned. Simulation results show that the proposed DIF-based AODV protocol reduces the frequency of link disconnection and improves the performance of end-to-end delay while reducing unnecessary control packet transmission in the network.
