Abstract EN
Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) are generally created for temporary scenarios.
In such scenarios, where nodes are in mobility, efficient routing is a challenging task.
In this paper, we propose an adaptive and cross-layer multipath routing protocol for such changing scenarios.
Our routing mechanisms operate keeping in view the type of applications.
For simple applications, the proposed protocol is inspired from traditional on-demand routing protocols by searching shortest routes from source to destination using default parameters.
In case of multimedia applications, the proposed mechanism considers such routes which are capable of providing more data rates having less packet loss ratio.
For those applications which need security, the proposed mechanism searches such routes which are more secure in nature as compared to others.
Cross-layer methodology is used in proposed routing scheme so as to exchange different parameters across the protocol stack for better decision-making at network layer.
Our approach is efficient and fault tolerant in a variety of scenarios that we simulated and tested.
