Abstract

Routing for ad-hoc wireless network is challenging, and there is no single routing strategy to deal with the complex and dynamic nature of the ad-hoc network. Given the availability of the low cost of location-aware devices, geographic forwarding and routing provided opportunity for improving existing ad-hoc routing strategies. In this paper, geographic forwarding strategies and geographic routing protocols are reviewed; challenges of implementing geographic routing in ad-hoc network are identified and discussed. More research effort is called for improving the basic forwarding strategy to increase the efficiency of the geographic routing protocol to provide a practical solution addressing the issues related to routing around local minima.
