Multi-constrained QoS Multicast Routing based on the Genetic Algorithm for MANETs

Journal Title: International Journal on Computer Science and Engineering - Year 2013, Vol 5, Issue 12

Abstract

A wireless MANET is a collection of wireless mobile hosts that dynamically create a temporary network without a fixed infrastructure. The topology of the network may change unpredictably and frequently. Therefore, multicast routing in ad hoc networks is a very challenging problem. This paper proposes a multi-constrained QoS multicast routing method using the genetic algorithm. In this work, Genetic Algorithm is used to determine the optimal multicast routing satisfying the quality of service requirements such as total delay, total delay jitter, packet loss and total bandwidth. By selecting the appropriate values for parameters such as crossover, mutation, and population size, the genetic algorithm improves and tries to optimize the routes. Simulation results indicate its better performances compared to other methods.
