ReCoMM: resource-aware cooperation modelling using Markov process for effective routing in mobile ad hoc networks

摘要

In Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs), the most essential factor for successful routing is the cooperation of nodes. The node's non-cooperative behavior causes routing problems and lowers network performance. The non-cooperation is related to a mobile node's resource restriction characteristics. The battery energy is a significant restriction for a node since it runs out after a certain amount of time. The mobility of nodes, on the other hand, has an impact on routing performance. As a result, the focus of this research is on assessing a node's collaboration by exploring futuristic node mobility and energy of the node. This study proposes the Resource-aware Cooperation Modeling with Markov Process (ReCoMM) for assessing link stability of the node in order to design effective routing. Using a Markov process, the ReCoMM model investigates the factors that influence cooperation and node state change. The Markov process is used to modify node durability and connection stability. The Markov process aids in the determination of the higher and smaller limits of cooperation with the computation of the cooperation value. The proposed ReCoMM model has been simulated, and performances were assessed with various scenarios using the NS2 simulator. The results show that the suggested ReCoMM produces 13-21 percent of higher packet delivery ratio than the existing methods. In a higher mobility scenario, the nodes' remaining energy increases to 6-7 percent as compared to previous methods. Furthermore, it considerably outperforms previous models by average end-to-end latency and routing overhead.
