摘要:Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) consist of a collection of wireless mobile nodes which dynamically exchange data among themselves without the reliance on a fixed base station or a wired backbone network. MANET nodes are typically distinguished by their limited power, processing and memory resources as well as high degree of mobility. AODV, a novel algorithm for operation of such ad-hoc networks. Each mobile host operates as a specialized router and routes are obtained as needed (i.e., on-demand) with little or no reliance on periodic advertisements. AODV is a reactive protocol and is one of the best so far. To have an improvement over AODV we have extended it by introducing the concept of ��favorable nodes��. Favorable nodes are the nodes which fail less frequently as compared to other nodes in scenario. When the route reply is received from more than one path then the packet is forwarded to that route which has more number of favorable nodes.
