Abstract
The simplistic approach of greedy forwarding (GF) makes it much more popular on resource-crunched wireless mobile networks. The GF also has some major drawbacks in dealing with local minimums and cross-link connections (Lee et al., 2010) [1]. We researched the reason behind it and found out that the Cartesian coordinate system and method of distance calculation (Euclidean distance) are the reasons behind it. We propose a discrete-dimensional coordinate system (DDCS) and greedy forwarding designed over it, i.e., DDCS-GF (Discrete Dimensional Coordinate System-based Greedy Forwarding). DDCS-GF outperforms the classic GF in dealing with cross-link and local minimum problems. DDCS-GF is better compatible with MANET as it has a decentralized approach for the localization of mobile nodes. Simulation results show that the packet delivery ratio of DDCS-GF is at least 2%–3% higher than that of classic greedy forwarding approaches over the mobile ad hoc network. By extending the number of viable routes and decreasing energy waste from local minimums and collisions, it also extends the network lifetime by 2%–4%.
