SRAD has four phases operation procedures;
Node discovery
Route discovery
Route Selection
Redundant Route use
First Phase is Node Discovery:
According to the link layer of IEEE 802.11 [12], each node senses any adjacent nodes; the nodes then exchange MAC address and possibly some authentication information to trust each other before considering each other. As a result of this phase, each node builds an adjacent nodes (AdN) table containing the MAC addresses of all adjacent nodes, including the BER values of their links.
Second Phase is Route Discovery:
In this phase, all the network nodes discover the possible routes to each corresponding node in the network.
