Abstract

Recent advances have seen the development of location prediction that use a variety of methods to determine a node’s future location based on their previous movements. Such geographical location routing prediction schemes can potentially benefit greedy geographic routing by allowing nodes to make routing decisions based on where a node will go rather than where it was according to the last update. The use of location prediction algorithms therefore allows geographic routing protocols to make decisions that are more intelligent, thus not only improving routing performance but providing a crucial step towards fully autonomous computer communications. We present a location prediction scheme on top of the existing Greedy Perimeter Stateless Routing (GPSR) protocol run in greedy mode.
