M-AODV: Modified Ad Hoc On-demand distance vector routing scheme

The Ad Hoc On-demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing scheme is a widely used routing technique in ad hoc networks due to its low routing traffic overhead. However, the performance of the minimum hop routing used by AODV degrades significantly when the underlying system has routes that have high throughput and hop count. In this paper, we propose modifications to the routing metric and the route discovery mechanism of the AODVv2 scheme. The modified scheme is termed Modified-AODV (M-AODV). Simulation results reveal that the performance of the proposed scheme significantly improves in terms of key performance metrics when compared with AODV.
