Extensions in Mobile Ad Hoc Routing Using Variable Precision Rough Sets

Mobile ad hoc networks are formed dynamically without any infrastructure and each node in the network is responsible for routing information. Rough set theory is a mathematical tool to deal with vagueness and uncertainty. Variable precision rough sets (VPRS) is a generalization of rough sets that allows for a controlled degree of misclassification. This paper proposes extensions in mobile ad hoc routing using VPRS. The performance of the proposed mobile ad hoc routing protocol is compared with that of an existing routing protocol.
