Abstract

Multi-path routing technology is important for wireless ad hoc networks because it can increase the throughput of flows. In this paper we discuss the throughput in wireless ad networks with multi-path routing, and draw a conclusion: when the distance from the source to the destination is not so much, then the throughput of flow through multi-path is not more than that with shortest single-path in wireless ad hoc networks. And when the distance from the source to the destination is long enough, the throughput of flow through multi-path is more than that with shortest single-path. And simulation shows the same result.
