Abstract

A reliable routing protocol with the purpose of attaining high percentage of data delivery in the mobile ad hoc networks is presented. The routing protocol presented for MANETs employs multi-grid routing scheme adaptively uses varying cell sizes, unlike single-grid based protocols. In a dense network, a small-cell node is employed to serve more alternative cells for a path. Meanwhile, a large-cell can be used to allow the probability of seamless data forwarding when the network is sparse. The paper simplifies complex coverage problem step by step. By means of math modeling, theoretical analysis and formula deducting, classical geometric theories and the method of mathematics induction are adopted.
