Stable and Energy Efficient Routing for Mobile Adhoc Networks

Mobile ad hoc networking is a challenging task due to the lack of resources in the network as well as the frequent changes in network topology. Although lots of research has been done on supporting QoS in the Internet and other networks, but they are not suitable for mobile Ad hoc networks and still QoS support for such networks remains an open problem. In this paper, a new scheme has been proposed for achieving QoS in terms of packet delivery, multiple connections, better power management and stable routes. It offers quick adaptation to distributed processing, dynamic linking, low processing overhead and loop freedom at all times. The proposed scheme has been incorporated using AODV protocol and by extensive simulation the performance has been studied, and it is clearly shown that the proposed scheme performs very well for different network scenarios.
