摘要:Mobile Ad-Hoc Network (MANET) is a collection of mobile devices forming a communication network without any preexisting infrastructure. Each mobile node moves in an arbitrary manner due to dynamic topology in MANETs. Due to this dynamic topology, routes are subjected to frequent breakage. This problem causes significant throughput degradation. In this paper, a link breakage prediction algorithm is added to the Dynamic Source Routing Protocol. In the link breakage prediction, the availability of link is evaluated using signal power strength from the received packets and if the link is soon to be broken, then a warning is issued to the source node of the packet. The source node can perform a pro-active route rebuild to avoid the disconnection due to link failure.
