Abstract
We propose the use of directional antennas for improvingthe efficiency of on-demand protocols in mobile ad hocnetworks. These protocols require that routes are found andmaintained reactively, as required to handle the offered traffic.However, the process of searching for a route typically involvesa network-wide flood of query packets, which consumes a largeportion of the wireless bandwidth. We present two protocolsthat reduce the number of routing packets transmitted duringthe route...Keywords
