Abstract:This paper presents the design and the performance evaluation of a joined process between the PHY (PHYsical) layer and routing layer in a multi-hop wireless ad hoc networks. This cross-layer interaction between the PHY and routing layers allows each node in an ad hoc network to evaluate the performance of each path in its routing table in terms of Bit Error Rate (BER) and to classify each path accordingly. Routing information from poor quality links are not forwarded leading to the selection of high quality li… Show more
