An optimized hybrid internet connectivity approach for Mobile Ad-hoc Networks

Mobile ad-hoc networks are autonomous, infrastructure-free networks which can support multi-hop wireless communication through routing protocols with proactive, reactive or hybrid schemes. This paper will propose an optimized approach over hybrid scheme through removing unidirectional links and relieving blindly broadcast of route discovery packets over mobile nodes and Internet gateway which impact correctness and efficiency of connectivity so much. Simulation results show the optimized approach has improved performance of packet delivery while keeping the overhead low.
