RESUMO

An important advance generated by the technology of digital TV is the possibility of interactivity with the users, what is done by means of the return channel. The mobile ad hoc networks have a great potential to provide this type of service, because it can ideally be used in diverse geographic areas and independent of any infrastructure. This minimizes the costs and the time needed to implement the network for this canal. One of the main questions techniques in the context of the mobile ad hoc networks is the necessity of efficient routing algorithms. The Terminodes project, developed by the Federal Institute of Technology of Switzerland, developed a routing protocol that is based in location information. This routing method frequently is a way to provide scalability in large ad hoc networks. The routing based on location is difficult when it has areas of exclusion in the topology of the network and the nodes are mobile or they are frequently disconnected to save battery. Therefore, assess the robustness of the protocol for these cases is basic to evaluate its use in networks for the digital TV return channel.
