Routing algorithm based on optimal delay for mobile Ad Hoc network

The access policy with reservation in TDMA is used to guarantee QoS for mobile Ad Hoc network.However,in large scale network the time multiplexed communication will introduce extra delay.A heuristic routing algorithm based on optimal delay is proposed.The algorithm takes delay as routing cost function and fully considers congestion control.Simulation results show that the algorithm can significantly improve the end-to-end delay compared to routing algorithm based on the shortest hops.An effective solution is provided for realizing multimedia applications in mobile network.
