This paper focuses on the implementation of heterogeneous
Mobile Ad Hoc networks (MANET). A heterogeneous
MANET is a wireless network setting without a fixed infrastructure
where participating devices may be of different
kind (e.g., desktop, laptop, or palmtop computers), may
not share the same operating system, and may not share
the same wireless technology. We describe the design and
implementation of a prototype for the OLSR routing protocol,
targeting multiple operating systems, devices, and radio
technologies. We choose a proactive routing protocol to
obtain optimal routes in a dense network with slow mobility
patterns and to ease the portability task to the heterogenous
environment. We also optimized the OLSR protocol, making
it more reactive to topology changes.
