AB  - Problem statement: An inherent feature of mobile ad hoc networks is the frequent change of
network topology leading to stability and reliability problems of the network. Highly dynamic and dense
network have to maintain acceptable level of service to data packets and limit the network control
overheads. This capability is closely related as how quickly the network protocol control overhead is
managed as a function of increased link changes. Dynamically limiting the routing control overheads based
on the network topology improves the throughput of the network. Approach: In this study we propose
Varying Overhead - Ad hoc on Demand Vector routing protocol (VO-AODV) for highly dynamic mobile
Ad hoc network. The VO-AODV routing protocol proposed dynamically modifies the active route time
based on the network topology. Results and Conclusion: Simulation results prove that the proposed model
decreases the control overheads without decreasing the QOS of the network.
