Development of an Adaptive Routing Algorithm in MANET

The aim of this work is to optimize existing routing protocols in self-organizing decentralized MANET networks by adding new metrics, creating control nodes that automate the process of selecting a routing protocol. Implementation of algorithms for use in routing based on given metrics and parameters are proposed. Analyzing the results obtained, the optimized protocol outperforms others in terms of network lifetime, in the case of a low mobility scenario, the gain reaches about 27% compared to the OLSRv2 routing protocol.
