Abstract
With the rapid advances in wireless and semiconductor technologies mobile connectivity became cheap and ubiquitous. One of the major challenges facing Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks (also known as MANETs) is the absence of a proper routing protocol that provides good scalability, low overhead, low end-to-end delays, seamless connectivity and good quality of service. In this paper we propose a Hierarchically Segmented Routing (HSR) approach to solve this problem, based on the two well know routing protocols; the DSR and CGSR. The paper provides a comparative analysis of the proposed HSR protocol using a stochastic network simulation.
