Stable enhancement for AODV routing protocol

Routing algorithm has been the challenge in the wireless ad-hoc network for a long time because of the quick mutability of the network topology introduced by the mobility of nodes. AODV is appealing for ad hoc networks as an efficient on-demand routing protocol because of the low routing overhead and high performance. As an optimization for the current AODV, a novel stable adaptive enhancement for AODV routing protocol was proposed in this paper, which considers joint route hop count, node stability and route traffic load balance as the route selection criteria. Comparing with AODV protocol, the new algorithm has better performance as shown with the simulations results.
