Abstract
Opportunistic routing (OR) for multi-hop wireless networks was first proposed by Biswas and Morris in 2004, but again as a modified version in 2005 as Extremely Opportunistic Routing (ExOR). A few other variants of the same were also proposed in the meanwhile time. In this paper we propose a Dynamic Opportunistic Routing (DOR) protocol which depends on network density and also provides spatial diversity. Our routing protocol is distributed in nature and provides partial 802.11 MAC layer abstraction. To verify the results of our protocol we took a network with light-density of nodes and bigger in size (as OR performs better in higher node density). A wireless mesh network in “QualNet network simulator” was created, where the average endto-end delay and throughput at every node are compared with that of other standard routing protocol OLSRINRIA.
