Abstract :
Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) are networks with dynamic topology and limited resources, where routing is highly correlated to their performance. Most routing algorithms focus on the establishment of a single path between the source and the destination. However, multiple routes have been proven beneficial, when used either for load balancing or as backup routing paths. In this paper we propose a novel routing algorithm which is based on the Dynamic Manet On-demand (DYMO) routing protocol and evaluate its performance in detail. Simulation results show that multiple paths can reduce the delay while decrease the transmitted routing packets.
