Abstract

In this paper, we study the scalability of OLSR (Optimized Link State Routing) protocol, adapted for Multi-hop Mobile Ad Hoc Networks. We present a modified OLSR routing protocol, G-OLSR (Grid-OLSR) which incorporates the advantages of topology-based and position-based routing. The protocol has been designed to serve easier and robust ad hoc network deployments interesting for network operators and service providers, supporting mission-critical applications and innovative services as well as for fully distributed scenarios interesting for spontaneous deployments and mesh-type wireless multi-hop networks. The simulation results corroborates that the proposed schemes performs better than the OLSR routing scheme and from the analyses, we could interpret that G-OLSR is more suited for scalable mobile ad hoc networks.
