AbstractThe wireless ad hoc network is very famous network in present time. In the wireless ad hoc network, there are two main routing protocols which use to find the route to transmit data, that is, proactive and reactive routing protocols. In proactive protocols, optimize link state routing protocol (OLSR) is the one of the most famous protocols. This protocol always maintains the route all the time. Therefore, each node can immediately send data whenever they want to send but this protocol may cause the waste of the normalize routing overhead ratio (NRO) and NRO may decrease overall performance of the system. This work will provide the way to solve this problem by use famous mathematic tool called game theory which uses in the interactive decision systems. In normally, OLSR have to maintain the route by up dating HELLO and TC message in every period of HELLO and TC interval. O LSR is modified by using game theory technique. The game is designed for the system and every node in the system has to play this game when HELLO interval is expired. Each node will choose its strategy to update or not update the HELLO message in each round of game. From the simulation results, the reducing ratio of NRO of modified OLSR is higher than the reducing ratio of average throughput. Therefore, this modified OLSR is proper for the scenarios where the size of data is close to the size of control overhead.
