Impact of Failures on Routing in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks Using DSR

Overview This paper studies the transient behavior of Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) protocol in case of path failures in mobile ad hoc networks. Transient analysis shows that after packets en route reach the failure point, they may block the interface queue and cause significant waste of wireless resources resulting in poor network performance. The paper presents a scheme called Failure Record to prevent this situation and improve various performances of the network. Simulation results show that the scheme is very efficient.
