QoS support is one of the major concerns in ad hoc network. In an ad hoc network with the dynamics of nodes, hidden terminals, and fluctuating link characteristics, it is not a trivial issue to provide end-to-end QoS support. This problem should be addressed at multiple layer of the network protocol stack, such as transport layer, network layer and medium access control layer. It is important to take into account QoS requirements when designing routing protocols. This paper presents a distributed adaptive link state routing protocol for finding and maintaining the routes, which is most likely to meet QoS requirements, based on the two characteristics: Average Error Packets Rate (AEPR) and Living Time (LT). The AEPR criterion allows the protocol to differentiate between good and bad receiving quality channels. The LT criterion biases the protocol toward choosing a channel that has existed for a longer period of time. The routes selected in the protocol are not necessarily the paths with shortest hops, but they do give routes that have better receiving quality and that last longer, which may be more important and meaningful in ad hoc network environment. The protocol could be regard as QoS aware routing. The simulation results clearly indicate that the performance of the protocol exceeds conventional routing protocol such as Distributed Bellman-Ford and Ideal Link-state as the rate of topological changes is increased.
