What are the benefits of the OLSR protocol?
A. Optimized Link State routing (OLSR) protocol is an open protocol that is widely used and is being actively extended by a community of users. OLSR is a table-driven pro-active approach to mobile ad hoc network (MANET) routing that delivers real-time understanding of the network topology. OLSR operates by updating and maintaining information in tables. As its name suggests, OLSR optimizes the link-state scheme to diffuse topology information. In a classic link-state algorithm, link-state information floods throughout the network. OLSR modifies this approach to run in wireless multi-hop scenarios so routing updates are optimized to preserve bandwidth. The optimization is based on a technique called multi-point relaying that creates a multi-level hierarchy that decreases routing update overhead and enhances scalability to large numbers of nodes. Q. What is the data rate for RapidLink nodes? A.The data rate is about 10 milliseconds per jump. Streaming video, at about 500 milliseconds, do
