Abstract
A kind of route selection method of ad hoc wireless networks is disclosed in the present invention. The ad hoc wireless network is divided into plural clusters; and each cluster includes plural nodes. When the source node of the cluster desires to send a data packet to a target node, the route to reach the target node is then obtained according to the route table if the source node and the target node are located in the same cluster; if they are not located in the same cluster, the source node sends a route request such that the packet is sent to the target node through the bridging node to obtain the route for reaching the target node. After that, the source node transmits the data packet to the target node through the route.
