A routing protocol for packet radio networks

TLDR
Simulation results indicate that WRP is the most efficient of the algorithms simulated in a wireless environment.
Abstract
: The authors present a new distance-vector routing protocol for a packet radio network. The new distributed routing protocol, Wireless Routing Protocol (WRP), works on the notion of second-to-last hop node to a destination. WRP reduces the number of cases in which a temporary routing loop can occur and also provides a mechanism for the reliable transmission of update messages. The performance of WRP has been compared quantitatively by simulations with that of distributed Bellman-Ford (DBF), DUAL (a loop-free, distance-vector algorithm), and an ideal link-state algorithm (ILS) that represents the state of the art of Internet routing in a highly dynamic environment. The simulation results indicate that WRP is the most efficient of the algorithms simulated in a wireless environment.

Ad-hoc on-demand distance vector routing

TL;DR: An ad-hoc network is the cooperative engagement of a collection of mobile nodes without the required intervention of any centralized access point or existing infrastructure and the proposed routing algorithm is quite suitable for a dynamic self starting network, as required by users wishing to utilize ad- hoc networks.

Highly dynamic Destination-Sequenced Distance-Vector routing (DSDV) for mobile computers

TL;DR: The modifications address some of the previous objections to the use of Bellman-Ford, related to the poor looping properties of such algorithms in the face of broken links and the resulting time dependent nature of the interconnection topology describing the links between the Mobile hosts.

A distributed routing algorithm for mobile wireless networks

TL;DR: A loop-free, distributed routing protocol for mobile packet radio networks intended for use in networks where the rate of topological change is not so fast as to make “flooding” the only possible routing method, but not so slow to make one of the existing protocols for a nearly-static topology applicable.

Loop-free routing using diffusing computations

TL;DR: A family of distributed algorithms for the dynamic computation of the shortest paths in a computer network or internet is presented, validated, and analyzed, and these algorithms are shown to converge in finite time after an arbitrary sequence of link cost or topological changes.
