Power Aware and Signal Strength Based Routing Algorithm for Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

摘要

A mobile ad hoc network is collection of mobile nodes. The mobile nodes can move freely from one place to another. In this paper, we propose a new routing algorithm for the mobile ad hoc networks to route the data packets to the destination based on the residual battery capacity and signal strength. The proposed model has simulated with the help of network simulator and has compared with the algorithms namely, MTPR and CMMBCR. The simulation results are shown that the proposed model has reached top position in terms of the network lifetime, network throughput and percentage of path reconstructions as compared to MTPR and CMMBCR models. In MTPR model, 7th node dies around 25.96% earlier than the proposed model and 4.95% before CMMBCR model. At 11th node in MTPR model will die around 96.32% prior to the proposed model and 93% against to CMMBCR model. In fact, the proposed model has reduced the number of route reconstructions by 83.86% as compared to CMMBCR model whereas MTPR model, it takes more number of path reconstructions(81.82%) than CMMBCR model if the node mobility is 10 m/sec.
