Abstract
Majority of the wireless ad hoc routing protocols are proposed to find feasible routes without considering the network load, end-to-end link quality and bandwidth requirements of the application. Therefore, protocol may not provide sufficient quality of service (QoS) to a high speed traffic such as multimedia. In this paper, we propose a path-quality and bandwidth-estimation based routing protocol (PBBR) for the high quality multimedia stream that can meet the application's bandwidth requirements and find the best reliable route. The novelty of this protocol is to select a reliable path to respond the application's requirements based on available bandwidth at each intermediate node and end-to-end path loss ratio. Obtained results from the simulation demonstrates that our protocol can achieve sufficient performance in terms of throughput and end-to-end delay.
