Energy Efficient Routing Protocol for Mobile Ad-hoc Networks

Abstract

Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) also called mesh networks are self-configuring networks of mobile devices connected by wireless links. MANETs are deployed in situations where there is no existing infrastructure, such as emergency search and rescue, military, etc. Each application has a different set of requirements. This paper considers energy routing protocols and workload balancing techniques for improving MANET routing protocols and energy efficiency. We give routing protocol that employs load balancing technique to the MANET routing protocols with node caching enhancement. For energy efficiency evaluation of the protocols with limited power supply, the primary objectives of MANET routing protocols are to maximize network throughput, to maximize energy efficiency, maximize network lifetime, and to minimize delay. The network throughput is usually measured by packet delivery ratio while the most significant contribution to energy consumption is measured by routing overhead which is the number or size of routing control packets. The simulation will be done using NS2 network simulator.
