In an ad-hoc network, a routing protocol which detects
a transmission route from a source mobile computer
to a destination one is critical due to mobility
and limited battery capacity of mobile computers.
Here, a communication link between two mobile computers
is not always bi-directional, i.e. uni-directional,
since transmission power of mobile computers is not
the same. Though some ad-hoc routing protocols, e.g.
DSR, support routing with uni-directional links, multiple
floodings (successive broadcasting) are used and
communication overhead is high. This paper proposes a
novel routing protocol LBSR supporting uni-directional
links and based combination of a single flooding
and multiple unicast message transmissions. In LBSR,
route cache mechanism works better than DSR in an
environment with uni-directional links. Simulation results
show the efficiency of route cache in LBSR.
