Abstract

This paper sets out an extension of an AODV routing protocol, called Routing by Energy and Link quality indicator (REL). The proposed protocol adopts a new cross-layer approach as a mechanism to select the best routes. The paths are selected on the basis of remaining energy, a proposed link quality estimator (WeakLink), and hop count. Thus, REL provides reliability, energy-efficiency, and a fair distribution of network resources.
