Outline • Self-study lecture
Position Unaware Routing • All the routing protocols that we have discussed so far can be called position unaware routing. • Each node has an address and each node keeps track of the neighbours´ addresses. • However, when a message has to be sent from a source to a destination, the source node is not aware of the current position of the destination.
Position Aware Routing • In contrast, in position aware routing, a source node knows the position or location of the destination node. • The position information can be collected in different ways : • From the direction and strength of the received wireless signals • Through interfacing with a low-power Global Positioning System (GPS) and a satellite updating the positions of the nodes by sending signals to this GPS device.
