Everything about Dynamic Source Routing

Routing protocol for wireless mesh networks

Dynamic source routing (DSR) is a routing protocol for wireless mesh networks. It is similar to AODV in that it forms a route on-demand when a transmitting node requests one. However, it uses source routing instead of relying on the routing table at each intermediate device. Wikipedia →
