Introduction
r Routing in wireless Ad Hoc network
Þ Proactive (DSDV)
Þ Reactive (DSR, AODV)
r Problems in Reactive Routing Protocols
Þ Finding the shortest path between sender and receiver by
flooding the requests
Þ Shortest path leads to network congestion in central areas
Þ Caching mechanisms for storing the routes causes the traffic
load to concentrate on certain nodes
Þ Traffic load is unevenly distributed
