In the development of networks, a new paradigm called flying adhoc networks (FANET) has evolved recently. FANET’s are comprised of unmanned aerial vehicles like drones, autonomous flights, etc. Drones are mainly used for surveillance, logistics, etc. On the verge of this FANET, many issues are arising regarding their proper usability, one among them being the routing of packets from the ground station to the destined drone. In this research work, we have developed a protocol for packet delivery called fuzzy adaptive routing protocol. This protocol uses factors like signal quality, signal to inference and noise ratio, hop count, and timestamp of the packet to decide on the broadcasting of route requests and reply messages. This protocol mainly contains two phases namely: controlled route request/reply broadcasting and optimal route selection for packet delivery. The performance of the proposed protocol is compared with recent techniques and the comparison depicts that the proposed protocol outperforms them and provides consistent service quality.
