Abstract
Quality-of-Service (QoS) routing and bandwidth reallocation is one of the most important issues to support multimedia service in wireless multi-hop networks. The goal of QoS routing is to find a satisfactory path that can support the end-to-end QoS requirements of the multimedia flow. In this paper, we propose a multi-channel route relay MAC protocol to alleviate the adverse effects by inter-channel interference and path breakage caused by mobility in multi-channel mobile ad hoc networks. Our protocol relays an alternate channel via the neighbor which finds the released node when a communicating node moves out of transmission range. Simulation results demonstrated that our protocol may reduce communication overheads associated with exchanging control messages for re-establishing a path.
