Abstract

Achieving QoS (Quality of Service) in Mobile Ad-hoc NETworks (MANET) has been a research topic in the last years. In this paper we describe a QoS reservation mechanism for Routing Ad-hoc Networks. The mechanism is targeted for sources requiring a bandwidth allocation. The mechanism is based on the knowledge of the bandwidth requirements of the neighbors of a node and the interferent nodes in the cover area of each node. We describe as the protocol could be integrated in AODV and OLSR. We also give simulation results showing the advantages of our reservation scheme.
