Search for: [Description = "Position\-based routing protocols are widely accepted efficient solution for routing in MANETs. The main feature of position\-based routing protocols is to use greedy forwarding methods to route data. The greedy forwarding methods select a node, either having maximum progress towards destination \(distance\-based principle\) or minimum deviation with line between source and destination \(direction\-based strategy\). The first method minimizes the hopcount in a path and on the other hand, second method minimizes the spatial distance between source and destination. The distance\-based routing has a great impact on the selection of reliable node and the direction based routing plays a major role to increase the stability of route towards destination. Therefore, in this paper authors propose a weighted forwarding method, which combines both the selection, schemes to select an optimal next forwarding node in a range. The simulation results show that the proposed scheme performs better than existing position\-based routing protocols."]
