An Enhancement of AODV routing protocol for more robust wireless sensor network by Che-Aron, Zamree, Al-Khateeb, Wajdi Fawzi Mohammed, Anwar, Farhat

“…When a node gets failure to deliver the data packet through the main route, it immediately employs its backup route to become its new main path instead of the previously broken one to reduce a number of data packets dropped because of route break and to maintain the continuity of data packet delivery in presence of some faults (nodes failure and links error). Moreover, this proposed routing protocol also satisfies the low transmission delay and gets better throughput results. …”
