Abstract

How to select route is very important in the Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks. ARAMA [1] can reduce the flooding for route discovery, collecting path information to select the best path and also can have multi-paths for backup and balance. However, it will link break and packet loss when the mobility nodes moving out of the transmission range. In this paper based on receives the signal strength measurements to forecast if the mobile node will moving out of the transmission scope in the next time, and change to the next node before the link interrupting. It collects the MAC layer residual bandwidth, link delay and battery remaining energy information, than utilizes cross-layer to change pheromone value depends on the weight value of QoS parameters, to achieve the reduced packet loss and the selects optimal path.
