Abstract— In this paper, we proposed a communication scheme of Ad hoc network based on smart phone. In the scheme, smart phones are connected to each other and set up a network to build an independent communication community, and each smart phone has routing function in the community. The community can provide mobile communication services without any costs and operators. We called this scheme as the mobile community. Based on the characteristic of this scheme, we designed the system functions as well as the communication technology of voice and text, and at the same time for the system environment, we studied the AODV protocol in Ad Hoc network and improved it as TNAODV protocol to adapt to the complexity of the system. In order to further reduce energy consumption and shorten the time required to establish communication, a cross-layer AODV routing algorithm is proposed. At last we combined the theoretical analysis of this algorithm used OPNET14.5 to stimulate performance for the system and proved the practical value of the mobile community.

Index Terms— Ad hoc networks, routing algorithms, smart phone, TNAODV.
