In this paper, we propose a routing protocol for disconnected ad hoc networks where most nodes tend to move about in groups. To the best of our knowledge, no routing protocol for disconnected ad hoc networks has been designed earlier keeping in mind possible group patterns formed by the movement of nodes. Our protocol works by identifying groups using an efficient distributed group membership protocol, and then routing at the group level, rather than at the node level. The protocol is designed so that existing concepts of routing in disconnected ad hoc networks can be extended to work at the group level. Initial simulations across a broad spectrum of parameters suggest that our protocol performs better in terms of delivery ratio and latency over traditional approaches like AODV [1], and also over disconnected routing approaches like the 2-Hop routing protocol [2].
