Abstract

In the ZigBee networks, the Z-AODV routing algorithm could use the global shortest path for data transmission by flooding the routing quest when necessary. However, this mechanism may lead to a heavy routing overhead. In this paper, we propose a directional broadcasting algorithm in routing discovery (DBRD) to reduce the routing overhead. The network is divided into several continuous “clusters” based on their relative position information. The devices which are not in the clusters covering the shortest path may not take part in the routing request rebroadcasting. The simulation results show that the DBRD could improve the performances of routing discovery; the routing overhead was effectively reduced.
