Routing protocol for mobile ad-hoc wireless networks

Bluetooth is a cutting-edge technology used for implementing wireless ad-hoc networks. In order to provide an overall scheme for mobile ad-hoc networks, this paper deals with scatternet topology formation and routing algorithm to form larger ad-hoc wireless Networks. Scatternet topology starts by forming a robust network, which is less susceptible to the problems posed by node mobility. Mobile topology relies on the presence of free nodes that create multiple connections with the network and on their subsequently rejoining the network. Our routing protocol is a proactive routing protocol, which is tailor made for the Bluetooth ad-hoc network. The connection establishment connects nodes in a structure that simplifies packet routing and scheduling. The design allows nodes to arrive and leave arbitrarily, incrementally building the topology and healing partitions when they occur. We present simulation results that show that the algorithm presents low formation latency and also generates an efficient topology for forwarding packets along ad-hoc wireless networks.
