Abstract
This article presents an adaptive cross-layer solution for wireless networks. The main objective is to estimate the impact that different physical layer variations and approaches can have on the network layer. The data loss probability obtained directly from physical layer will provide the routing protocol enough information to choose routes with the highest successful transmission probabilities. This proposal was evaluated under simulations and the obtained results point to a more stable network with fewer route recalculations and smaller number of packets lost.
