Abstract
This paper presents a new routing strategy for mobile ad hoc networks, called dynamic zone-based topology routing protocol (DZTR). We introduce new strategies to maintain up-to-date intrazone and interzone topology information at each node. We also propose a GPS-based location tracking mechanism, which reduces route discovery area and the number of nodes queried to find the required destination. Our routing strategy has been designed to work with a dynamic zone, which contains a set of member nodes. Every node outside a zone is called a single-state node. We perform theoretical performance analysis, which shows that our network topology creation process has significantly fewer overheads than flooding approaches.
