Reactive Location-Based Routing Algorithm with Cluster-Based Flooding

Location-Based Routing Algorithm with Cluster-Based Flooding (LORA-CBF) employs two location services: Simple and Reactive. A Simple Location Service has been implemented for neighbors nodes, and for faraway nodes, a Reactive Location Service is employed. In LORA-CBF, the source node includes the location of its destination in each packet. The packet moves hop by hop through the network, forwarded along via cooperating intermediates nodes. At each node, a purely local decision is made to forward the packet to the neighbor that is geographically closest to the destination. However, location information by itself does not guarantee the transmission between neighboring nodes in vehicular ad-hoc networks. Mobility and contention of wireless media may cause loss of packets being transferred, and this is very important aspect to consider in the development of wireless routing algorithms. Here, the authors have addressed this problem by including a predictive algorithm in LORA-CBF.
