A Reservation-based QoS Routing Protocol for Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks

Abstract
According to the user requirements for continuous and real-time multimedia information, the concept of Quality of Service (QoS) has emerged as a main issue in mobile ad-hoc networks. QoS routing is to find the route that meets the QoS requirements of the users. In this paper, we propose a routing protocol that is based on AODV over TDMA, one of the typical routing protocols for mobile ad-hoc networks, by making a bandwidth reservation for QoS guarantee. While the existing schemes calculate the maximum available bandwidth for each candidate path, our scheme is to check only if the bandwidth of a given path satisfies the end-to-end QoS requirement and then to make a reservation by allocating time slots efficiently in the wireless environment. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed QoS routing protocol, some simulations are carried out in the ad-hoc environment.
