AODV是一种广泛应用于MANET的按需路由协议,但是它并不完全适用于WSN。本文通过改进AODV协议基于洪泛的路由机制,提出了一种适用于WSN的低开销、低时延的路由协议IAODV。仿真结果表明:与AODV协议相比,IAODV协议可以在保持较高的分组投递率的同时有效降低数据分组的平均端到端时延和路由开销,达到了低开销、低时延的设计目标。
AODV is an on-demand routing protocol which is widely used in MANET, but not entirely applicable to WSN. In this paper, a low-cost and low-latency routing protocol for WSN named IAODV (improved AODV) was proposed through improving the flooding scheme of AODV routing protocol. The simulation results show that in comparison with AODV protocol, IAODV protocol not only obtains higher packet delivery rate, but also reduces average end-to-end delay of data packets and overhead effectively. In a word, IAODV can satisfy the low-cost and low-latency requirements.
