Routing Scheme for Multimedia Services in Mobile Ad Hoc Network

All communications in a network made by mobile hosts through a shared radio link without cable or backbone, commonly called mobile ad hoc network (MANET). Since the network topology may change constantly because of mobility of nodes and the available routes may fail many times, quality-of-service (QoS) of real-time multimedia application may have difficulty in satisfying their services. In this paper, we propose a routing scheme for multimedia services, which selects the shortest path by using power level. Our proposed scheme provides not only the lower means number of hops path from source node to destination node, but also higher thoughput than the conventional scheme
