Abstract :
In this paper, a novel packet routing scheme for UWB ad-hoc network is proposed and evaluated. UWB is a kind of spread spectrum communication and it is possible to detect the distance between the nodes. The novel routing scheme proposed in this paper employs UWB´s features and controls spreading factor according to the distance between the nodes. With controlling the maximum transmission distance and adopting multi-hop transmission, the throughput performance can be improved as compared to single-hop transmission.
