Application Research Based Ant Colony Optimization for MANET

At present, some ACO-based routing algorithms have been advised in mobile ad hoc networks. This paper proposes an on-demand routing algorithm named ADAA for mobile ad hoc networks. This algorithm establishes multi-path routing between a source node and its destination node and improves the packet delivery performance greatly. The simulation results show that the algorithm performs more effectively than other pertinent algorithms in ad hoc networks
