Abstract—In mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs), routing protocol plays the most important role. In the last decade, Ad hoc On-demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing protocol becomes the attention of focussed research on MANETs world wide. A lot of protocols had been proposed to improve and optimize AODV routing protocol to achieve the best in quest of reliable protocol. In this paper, we present some improvement suggestion to AODV routing protocol. Our proposed protocol, called AODV-UI, improved AODV in gateway interconnection, reverse route and in energy consumption. We also measure performance indicators for some metrics, such as energy, routing overhead, end-to-end delay, and packet delivery ratio. We performed our simulation scenarios with three mobility model with different maximum speed and sources in hybrid ad hoc network. The result shows that AODV-UI is more stable when it is used in random way point mobility model in any speed and number of sources.
