The most recent decade has seen a developing enthusiasm for the utilization of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) for different services and applications. UAVs, or as known as drones, have appeared to be productive in finishing complex errands when sorted out as ad hoc connected groups, thereby bringing into existence a Flying Ad hoc Network (FANET). Owing to its specific characteristics such as high mobility, rapid topology changes, and frequent link failures, FANETs bring further challenges into these networks. Therefore, developing an efficient routing protocol over FANETs is a very challenging matter and consequently triggered the attention of a lot of current researchers. In this article, we propose a Multi Data Rate Mobility Aware (MDRMA) protocol in which novel routing and power controlled mechanisms have been suggested. Basically, MDRMA protocol is considered as a major extension of Mobility …
