Abstract
It is very hard, but important to sustain path stability for a reliable communication in mobile ad hoc networks. We propose a novel source routing protocol that establishes a group path with virtual multiple paths to enable a robust communication. The entire mobile nodes form a disjoint set of clusters: Each has its clusterhead as a cluster leader and a unique cluster label to identify itself from other clusters. A group path is a sequence of cluster labels instead of nodes and the nodes with the same label collaborate to deliver packets to a node with next label on the group path. We prove by resorting to simulation that our proposed protocol outperforms the existing key routing protocols, even for a network with a high node mobility and a high traffic.
