Static Channel Width Routeless Routing with Network Holes Avoidance (SCWRRHA) Protocol

Abstract

In this paper, we introduce a network holes bypassing routeless routing protocol. Our protocol is an extension to our previous routeless protocol SCWRR. It uses nodes' mobility as an advantage to bypass trapped packets over networks holes. It does not require any prior knowledge of neighbors' locations. It only requires the locations sources and destinations which can be known reactively. The simulation results show that our protocol is able to avoid obstacles and holes to some extend. Hence, our prutocol is amenable to deployment in areas of restricted power-budget and bandwidth, such as the MASNET domain.
