The present papercomeswithin the framework of research to optimize QoS in MANET. In this paper, we propose a novel version of OLSR based on the clustering approach which is inspired from Lin and Chu heuristic and adapted to beimplemented inOLSR. We studied its stability and we compared its performances to those of standard OLSR. The metrics we used in evaluating network performances were average end-to-end delay, control routing overhead, and packet delivery ratio. Experimental results show that our alternative significantly reduces the traffic reserved to monitoring the network, which positively influences other performances such as throughput, delay, and loss. {\textcopyright} 2013 Ali Choukri et al.},

	abstract = {Due to the dynamic nature of Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) the Quality of Service (QoS) requires several improvements. In this paper, we propose a novel hierarchical routing protocol based on clustering approach inspired on the heuristic Max-Min D-Cluster that we have improved and implemented on standard OLSR. In order to validate this new release named OLSR-MaxMin2C we studied its stability and we compared its performances to those of other alternatives. The metrics we used in evaluating the performance of networks were Average end-to-end Delay, Control Routing Overhead and Packet Delivery Ratio according to VBR traffic (H.264) in addition to CBR traffic. Experimental results show that the control traffic is highly reduced and the improvement in the network performances is gained. {\textcopyright} IDOSI Publications, 2013.},
