TGRP: A New Hybrid Grid-based Routing Approach for Manets

Abstract

Most existing grid-based routing protocols use reactive mechanisms to build routing paths. In this paper, we propose a new hybrid approach for grid-based routing in MANETs which uses a combination of reactive and proactive mechanisms. The proposed routing approach uses shortest-path trees to build the routing paths between source and destination nodes. We design a new protocol based on this approach called the Tree-based Grid Routing Protocol (TGRP). The main advantage of the new approach is the high routing path stability due to availability of readily constructed alternative paths. Our simulation results show that the stability of the TGRP paths results in a substantially higher performance compared to other protocols in terms of lower end-to-end delay, higher delivery ratio and reduced control overhead.
