A Novel Optimized Routing Protocol for Ad-hoc Network

Rapid deployment and self-configuration are two key requirements in scenarios where mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) are used. Ad hoc networks allow communication between nodes without the aid of pre-existing infrastructure. Every node involved in communication acts as a router. MANET applications include conferences, disaster management, Waste generation battlefield communication, Sustainable withdrawals and other places where the deployment of infrastructure cannot be done due to cost or circumstances. The basic idea behind the ad-hoc protocols is to send packets between nodes via a single or multi-hop path. The source and destination will not always be connected because of mobility. If the network is connected, DSR performs well. DSR fails to deliver data if the network is only partially connected. The network’s connectivity suffers when there are fewer nodes. Better connectivity results from a dense network. In the following sections, the difficulties in mobile ad hoc networks and how to enhance The path selection systems on different networks are covered in this study. This study put forward the SDSR. (Smart DSR protocol) for interaction in an ad hoc network with few connections. This paper also discusses the proposed protocol’s efficiency in terms of delay, packet loss, throughput, and other parameters. SDSR is also thoroughly compared with existing Routing Protocols.
