Abstract

Due to the development of wireless technology, people can now communicate while moving around. Wireless communication realizes people's dream to get rid of the constraint of wires. More and more applications based on wireless technology are designed and commercialized. A type of mobile wireless network called "mobile ad hoc network" has attracted more and more attention. A mobile ad hoc network is a totally wire free network without any connection through access points to the Internet. There is no centralized controlling center or infrastructure in a mobile ad hoc network. In such a network, mobile nodes are allowed to move around anywhere within a range and the topology which consists of mobile nodes changes frequently. The operation difficulty of a mobile ad hoc network is how a packet is to be routed. We propose a new and effective routing protocol named as "direction-aware routing protocol" for mobile ad hoc networks. Details of direction-aware routing algorithm are described and we also present our simulation methodology and simulation results to show the performance advantage of our routing performance.
