Abstract

The main goal of routing protocol is efficient delivery of data from source to destination. All routing protocols are same in this goal, but the way they adopt to achieve it is different. So routing strategy has an egregious role on the performance of an ad hoc network and is one of the challenging issues in mobile ad hoc network (MANET). In this paper we designed a novel self repair cluster based routing protocol based on ad hoc on demand distance vector (AODV). Nodes are organized into a hierarchical structure of multi hop clusters using a stable distributed clustering algorithm. Further Third Party Route Reply is used to improve the performance of routing protocol. We focus on control of the NRL and end-to-end delay while improving the PDR by implementing the third party route reply in route discovery process and the self repair technique inside the cluster for route maintenance.
