Abstract
Systems and methods provide adaptability in a mobile ad hoc network (MANET), based on an existing protocol, such as adaptive hybrid domain routing (AHDR). The systems and methods are especially suited for fast changing topologies that may change after a reactive route discovery has been completed.
Claims3
A method for computing a stability of a given link in a mobile ad hoc network (MANET), comprising:
- a device for computing a link stability indicator (LSI) metric as a function of a weighted moving average over time of a delta difference of a link congestion indicator (LCI), a delta difference of a link quality indicator (LQI) and a mobility state,
- wherein the link stability indicator (LSI) metric is computed as:
- LSIij(t)=(w1ΔLCIWMA(t), w2ΔLQIWMA(t), w3mi, w4mi)
- where:
- ΔLCIWMA(t)—Weighted moving average of ΔLCI
- ΔLQIWMA(t)—Weighted moving average of ΔLQI
- mi, =mobilityi=(#i's good links)/(# i's link changes).
