A Survey of Multipath Routing Protocols For Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

Subhankar Ghosh, Dr. Anuradha Banerjee

Abstract :

 Generally during route discovery sessions, multiple routes are discovered from source to destination. Among them, one is elected as optimal and chosen for communication. In case the optimum route eaks, another route discovery session is initiated that consumes a lot more energy and bandwidth in the network. Multipath routing prevents this by introducing the concept of storing multiple paths at source before communication begins. As usual, data packets travel through the optimal path. If the optimal path eaks, communication resumes through the second optimal path instead of flooding more route–request packets in the network.
