l Lots of work on ROUTING PROTOCOLS, though very
little on avoiding packet loss due to route failure
u Flow Oriented Routing Protocol (FORP): destination predicts
topology change based on the Link Expiration Time
u Associativity Based Routing (ABR), Signal Stability-Based
Adaptive Routing (SSA) favor longer-live routes
l Paper in MobiCom 2001
u Also uses signal power strength
u Goal: reduce packet latency
u Different approach: preemptive zone, based on threshold
u At least 2 times increase in routing protocol overhead for DSR
