  • Abstract
    The reactive dynamic source routing (DSR) protocol is a commonly applied protocol in mobile ad hoc networks ( MANETs). When the network size is increased, it is observed that the overhead is also getting increased due to the source routing nature of DSR and this in turn reduces the efficiency of DSR protocol. In order to improve the scalability of DSR,in this paper, a modification is proposed for DSR. Simulation results show that the modified DSR (MDSR) has less overhead and delay compared to conventional DSR irrespective of network size.
