摘要：Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANETs) is collection of mobile/semi mobile nodes with no existing pre-established infrastructure, forming a temporary network. Mobile Ad hoc Networks are highly dynamic networks. Quality of Service (QoS) routing in such networks is usually limited by the network breakage due to either node mobility or energy depletion of the mobile nodes. Another issue that effects the QoS routing is routing overhead. Due to high mobility of nodes in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs), there exist frequent link breakages which lead to frequent path failures and route discoveries. The overhead of a route discovery cannot be neglected. In this paper we described the impact of routing overhead in a real-time-time MANET environment with suitable scenarios. And also we suggested some methods to reduce the routing overhead over the network such that to improve the Quality of Service (QoS) routing in MANETS.
