Abstract

This paper proposes a new routing protocol for ad hoc networks built around the source routing technique combined with the location (e.g., GPS coordinates) of nodes obtained by an energy and distance smart dissemination mechanism. The key new observation used is that the location information provides each node with a snapshot of the topology of the complete network from which a source route may be computed locally rather than through route discovery. The resulting protocol has reduced delay, and is more bandwidth and energy efficient, than both traditional (proactive and reactive) ad hoc routing protocols, as well as location based routing protocols.
