摘要：MANET (Mobile Ad hoc Network) is a collection of nodesinterconnected without a fixed infrastructure. For this reason themobile nodes are resource constraint in terms of energy, storagecapacity and processing power. To improve network throughputin MANET routing protocols such as AODV (Ad hoc On-Demand Distance Vector) is proved to be suitable. This isbecause the AODV protocol is an on-demand routing protocol asit won’t establish a route unless it is really required by thenetwork nodes [1]. Research in the area of effective routing hasattracted more attention in the industry. XOR coding scheme canimprove network throughput. However, the AODV protocol doesnot support execution of XOR coding scheme. As XOR codingcan improve the throughput in wireless sensor network.Especially it improves communication with unicast traffic. In thispaper, the XOR coding scheme is used to implement codingopportunity discovery that improves network throughput. TheAODV protocol is improved with coding opportunity discovery.The experiments are made using NS2 simulation and theempirical results reveal that the proposed scheme improvesnetwork throughput when it is compared with AODV.
