PC-PRPMANet: A power controller and proactive routing protocol for mobile ad hoc networks

摘要

Adaptive HELLO Messages are generated according to the instantaneous energy level of the battery is proposed for PC-PRPMANet based routing protocol. The HELLO messages are used by routing protocol for neighborhood discovery. Energy levels of neighbor nodes are collected by adjusting the HELLO messages period. Using Topology Control messages, each node stores the energy level for each valid path. Then we define the safest path as the route with the maximum energy level. In ad hoc networks, a node with an empty battery leaves the network, so no message should be sent through this route. This safest path definition represents the main feature of this work.
