MANETs is a collection of wireless moving nodes which communicate with each other and
exchange data without any fixed base station or without the need of any kind of wired backbone network.
These design characteristics make routing in wireless network a critical issue as routing protocols adopted in
wireless network is completely different from wired network in which a backbone router determines the
routing path. In this paper we discussed a OLSR routing protocol for routing path and discuss the problems of
OLSR routing protocol due to mobility of nodes. We integrate our solution to OLSR protocol called as POLSR.
P-OLSR is an extension that we designed for FANETs; it takes advantage of the GPS information
available on board. Performance evaluation of OLSR and P-OLSR is done through NS simulation. Simulation
results show that P-OLSR outperforms OLSR with respect to overheads. Our experiments evaluate the link
performance and the communication range, as well as the routing performance.
