Abstract—We have been studying on the application of the named data networking technology to mobile ad hoc networks. We suppose a type of ad hoc networks that advertise versatile information in public spaces such as shopping mall and museum. The proposed approach is a hybrid one where a proactive routing is used in the producer side network and a reactive routing is used in the consumer side network. Another feature of the proposed protocol is that only the name prefix advertisement is focused on in the proactive routing. In this paper, we show the results of performance evaluation focusing on the communication overhead. The results indicate that our proposal has a moderate overhead both for routing control messages and Interest packets compared with some of conventional NDN based ad hoc routing mechanisms proposed so far. 

Index Terms—Ad hoc network, named data networking, proactive routing, reactive routing.
