碩士 === 國立中山大學 === 資訊工程學系研究所 === 93 === The key challenge in mobile ad-hoc network (MANET) is the design of routing protocol which adapting their behavior to frequency with rapid changes in the network. As we have known, there are two main kinds of routing protocols in MANET: proactive and reactive routing protocol; and in addition, authors [1] proposed to use location information provided by positioning devices such as global positioning systems (GPS) to assist routing. We wonder whether the assumption of all devices in the communication area have the GPS ability is reasonable; furthermore, a GPS-enabled device has its own limitation on working areas; for example, the GPS ability cannot work in the indoor environments. In this paper, (1) we tried to addition the mechanism of probing routing redirection/discovery at routing protocol in AODV. Using overheard node avoid route breaking and select route batter than origin.(2)we tried to use the property of GPS to solve the routing problems in MANET, which like broadcast storm in the route discovery, device power saving and optimal one-hop destination, channel reuse rate, and optimal routing path. According to 802.11 specification, the best way to reach the goal of device power saving is putting device into the sleep mode. In this routing protocol, we let most mobile devices stay in the sleep mode until it sends or receives data or acts as an intermediate node to forward data. Last, we use simulations and implementation to validate the effectiveness of our design.
