Description
Summary:Nowadays, services over Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) are becoming more used, and multimedia services such as video-streaming applications are more demanded. Hence, it is necessary to provide end-to-end QoS over MANETs, although it poses a challenging problem due to the ephemeral structure of these networks. MM-DSR (Multipath Multimedia Dynamic Source Routing) is a multipath routing protocol DSR-based merged with a cross-layer algorithm which is able to provide QoS for multiple sources of video over IEEE 802.11b Ad Hoc networks. The weaknesses of the system with plain DSR and IEEE 802.11b have been analysed and work has been done in order to improve the throughput and the final user quality. The performance of video-streaming applications has been improved under high traffic load conditions over mobile Ad Hoc networks.
