摘要:Mobility is one of the basic features that define an ad hoc network, an asset that leaves the field free for thenodes to move. The most important aspect of this kind of network turns into a great disadvantage when itcomes to commercial applications, take as an example: the automotive networks that allow communicationbetween a groups of vehicles. The ad hoc on-demand distance vector (AODV) routing protocol, designedfor mobile ad hoc networks, has two main functions. First, it enables route establishment between a sourceand a destination node by initiating a route discovery process. Second, it maintains the active routes, whichmeans finding alternative routes in a case of a link failure and deleting routes when they are no longerdesired. In a highly mobile network those are demanding tasks to be performed efficiently and accurately.In this paper, we focused in the first point to enhance the local decision of each node in the network by thequantification of the mobility of their neighbours. Quantification is made around RSSI algorithm a wellknown distance estimation method.
