Novel multiple path routing technology for multi-hop wireless networks

The novel routing method proposed enables simultaneous utilisation of multiple paths without them interfering with each other, and improves the system throughput of multi-hop wireless networks between base station (BS) and mobile users. The basic concept is that the BS searches and selects the secondary multi-hop path that is located out of the coverage of the primarily selected multi-hop path derived by the conventional AODV scheme. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme improves the system capacity of the conventional multi-hop wireless network.
