Abstract: A Virtual Backbone-based Distributed Ad hoc Routing(VBDAR)protocol, which issuitable for large scale Ad hoc networks, is proposed in this paper. This protocol will construct Ad hoc virtual backbone at first, and then running classic Adhoc routing protocols on it. Redundancy messages can be significantly reduced asonly virtual backbone nodes perform routing algorithm. The results of simulation show that it can reduce the number of hops of routes, and will effectively improve the performance of services.

Key words: Ad hoc, virtual backbone, connected dominating set, distributed routing protocol
