Abstract
A novel routing algorithm which distributes the power consumption rate of each node evenly in a class of specialised mobile ad hoc networks, termed pico-networks, is presented. The algorithm adds one additional factor to the cost metric of paths in order to prevent the overuse of specific piconodes. Simulation results show that the new routing algorithm can prolong the lifetime and significantly improve the quality of a pico-radio network.
