DVR-BASED HYBRID ROUTING PROTOCOLS IN MOBILE AD-HOC NETWORK: APPLICATION AND CHALLENGES

DVR- hybrid routing protocol proposal derives from the conventional distance vector routing algorithm which, in turn, is based on Distributed Asynchronous Bellman Ford’s shortest path algorithm, however, with some minor to significant variations as needed for the ad hoc and mobile nature of the MANET A major thrust of the protocol designers towards the development and deployment of DVR-based routing protocols, irrespectively in wired, wireless or even in ad hoc and sensor networks is primarily because of the conceptual and implementation simplicity and elegance coupled with the minimum information requirement by each node of the DVR. A good amount of research has been done in the past towards the improvement of routing algorithms in MANET, but the area has not become stable till date. This paper, focused on several applications, challenges and solutions, in the perspective of routing in MANET.
