Abstract
This paper shows a novel technique for routing protocol in ad hoc network, namely simplified receiver assisted routing enhancement (RARE). Simplified mathematical model has been explained to analyze the performance of RARE algorithm. In this algorithm, we use the principle of the biologically inspired ant routing technique to evolutionally maintain the routing information. The similarities and differences of RARE and the traditional ant technique have been highlighted. The RARE concept is implemented to increase the probability to find the destination and decrease the connection set up time between the source and the destination. The performance of the proposed RARE is simulated and compared to the traditional ant [1]-[2] in radio network model (random graph model). The simulation result shows the potential of RARE to achieve higher probabilities to find the destination. More, the RARE can be used as an add-on module to many ad hoc routing protocols.
