            Abstract : 
In this paper, we present a new routing protocol for Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET), Vector Address Routing which employs Vector Address (VA) to replace source route in packets, and evaluate its performance through comparison with DSR. The results show that this protocol can reduce overhead of packet header, route table size and route table processing time.
