H. Vignesh Ramamoorthy, B. Sabarigiri, K. Ganeshkumar, D. Suganya Devi . A Novel Approach for Route Determining by Integrating Three Routing Techniques. International Conference on Research Trends in Computer Technologies 2013. ICRTCT, 2 (February 2013), 1-5.
Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANET) is an autonomous collection of mobile users that communicate over relatively bandwidth constrained wireless links. Since the nodes are mobile, the network topology may change rapidly and unpredictably over time. The network is decentralized, where all network activity including discovering the topology and delivering messages must be executed by the nodes themselves, i. e. , routing functionality will be incorporated into mobile nodes. The routing algorithms can be classified into Reactive and Proactive. A Hybrid algorithm combines the basic properties of reactive and proactive into one. The proposed approach is a novel and hybrid (integrated) approach, integrates three different algorithms together and helps to get optimum routes for a particular radio range. The approaches used here are Ant Colony Optimization (ACO), Multi Agent System (MAS) and Position based routing approach. The proposed integrated approach has a relatively short route establishment time while using a small number of control messages which makes it a scalable routing approach. The overhead of this routing approach is inexpensive and also enables to have an alternate route during route failure.
