Optimized Link State Routing Protocol for Ad Hoc Networks. Jacquet, Muhlethaler, Clausen, Laouiti, Qayyum, Viennot. 2001. IEEE where?

• The original OLSR paper.
• OLSR is, of course, a proactive link-state based algorithm.
• It is based on determination of multi-point relays, which handle broadcast traffic for groups of nodes and whom act as the route backbones.
• Geared toward large, dense networks with a large number of nodes communicating with a large number of nodes, and the talking pairs change over time.
• Each node knows its two-hop neighborhood.
• Routing decisions are based on hop count. Routing along MPRs does not necessarily decrease latency?
