AODV-UU

AODV-UU (Ad hoc On-Demand Distance Vector - Uppsala University) is an algorithm that helps mobile devices in a network find and maintain efficient routes to communicate with each other without relying on fixed infrastructure like cell towers. When a device needs to send data, AODV-UU dynamically discovers a path by broadcasting requests, and as devices move or change, it updates routes to ensure reliable delivery. This approach makes mobile networks flexible and robust, especially useful in situations like disaster responses, military operations, or large gatherings where traditional networks are unavailable or impractical.
