It utilizes the Route Discovery mechanism defined by the Dynamic Source Routing protocol (DSR) {[}4, 5, 7{]} to flood the data packets through the network. Although this protocol is derived from DSR, it can be implemented as a stand-alone protocol. In fact, it does not rely on unicast routing to operate. If DSR is already implemented on the network, very minor modifications are required to enable this protocol.}, }
