Abstract :
This paper presents a method to enhance OLSR quality of service. Our approach heavily relies on the binary error rate metric and allows to rise the packet delivery ratio (PDR). We find that two elements of OLSR must be changed, the MPR selection algorithm and the route computation. We show that our approach provides better PDR than the original OLSR algorithm.
