Abstract
In mobile ad hoc networks, node mobility causes frequent link failures, thus invalidating the routes containing those links. Once a link is detected broken, an alternate route has to be discovered. That will impose significant affect on the route stability and the overall performance of the network. We suggest discovering contained stable links routes based on fuzzy control. When mobile node S wishes to send a packet to a destination mobile node D, node S transmits a ROUTE REQUEST (RREQ) message which contains its velocity and direction as a single local broadcast packet. When one mobile node i (it is not D) receiving RREQ, it first gets the velocity and direction of previous node, then estimates the link stability between two nodes based on fuzzy logic. When the link stability come up to a certain standard, node i adds its address to RREQ and forward it, otherwise, discard it. Simulations show that the proposed PLSR (Mobility Prediction-based Link Stability Routing Protocol) outperforms DVMP (Distance Vector protocol with Mobility Prediction that uses GPS) [8].
