Normally, routing mechanisms are selfish in nature and are based on a single objective criterion, e.g., hop count. This behaviour is inappropriate for a long lasting communication as it causes performance degradation in the entire network and ultimately leads to network congestion. To enhance network performance, we propose a Co-operative Selection Reactive Routing Protocol (CSRP) that cooperatively selects the End-to-End (ETE) route by considering the traffic load along with the hop count. We compared CSRP with AODV using ns-2.35 in terms of ETE throughput, ETE delay, and Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR). The results reveal that CSRP improves throughput by 20.95, reduces delay by 18.65 and increases PDR by 56.41. © 2013 IEEE. date: 2013 publisher: Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84921775963&doi=10.1109%2fSCOReD.2013.7002640&partnerID=40&md5=18f90ff0b000722f5e062ad8229817ff id_number: 10.1109/SCOReD.2013.7002640 full_text_status: none publication: Proceeding - 2013 IEEE Student Conference on Research and Development, SCOReD 2013 pagerange: 495-499 refereed: TRUE isbn: 9781479926565 citation: Chughtai, O. and Badruddin, N. and Awang, A. and Rehan, M.
