Multipath Routing Research in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

In mobile Ad Hoc networks, routing becomes a challenge task due to the nodes mobility and topology changeability. At present, Ad Hoc network routing protocol is unipath, however, multipath routing can reduce routing overhead and improve delivery ratio. As a result, it can avoid some network congestion. In this paper we introduce some typical multipath routing protocols, evaluate these multipath protocols and compare their performance. Then we also introduce some multipath protocols which have better performance in QoS, energy and security. In the end, we
