Abstract

In Mobile Ad hoc Network, reactive protocols don’t preserve routing information at the network node level, if there is no communication between the nodes. Reactive protocol determines a route to a specific destination when a particular packet is intends to send. We proposed a reverse reactive routing based route discovery approach, which is used to find an optimal route to the destination with lower overhead than flooding based reverse route discovery. Here we showed how the reverse reactive routing protocol performs to find an optimal path. The optimal path is obtained through three steps, which is reverse route calculation in route request (RREQ), reverse route calculation in route reply (RREP) and reverse route calculation in route error (RERR). Experiments have been carried out using network simulator (NS2) and the obtained results are performed better than reactive routing protocol (AODV).KeywordsMobile Ad-Hoc NetworksReactive Routing ProtocolNS2Route DiscoveryRAODV
