Description: Anypath routing is proposed to improve the performance
of wireless networks by exploiting the spatial diversity and
broadcast nature of the wireless medium. In this paper, we study
anypath routing in wireless networks with directional antennas,
and propose DART (Directional Anypath RouTing), a crosslayer
design of MAC and routing layers. For the routing layer,
we propose two shortest directional anypath routing algorithms
based on two antenna models. Our routing algorithms are
simple and fast, thus are suitable for implementation in practical
protocols. For the MAC layer, we present a directional anycast
MAC, which is an enhancement to the IEEE 802.11 MAC, making
DART suitable for integration into current systems. Simulation
results show that DART can significantly reduce the packet
transmission delay.
