A scenario based simulation analysis and performance evaluation of energy efficiency enhancement of routing protocols in MANET

Mobile Adhoc Networks having self organizing and self configuring network without the need of any centralized base station and physical connections of mobile devices. Mobile ad-hoc network has no fixed topology due to mobility of nodes, interference, path loss and multipath propagation. Therefore, MANET has to need dynamic routing protocols for these networks to function properly for delivering the data packets from source node to desired destination. In MANETs, the nodes make the mobile and battery operated. Since the nodes have limited battery resources and multi-hop routes are used over a changing network environment due to behavior of the node mobility, it requires energy aware efficient routing protocols to limit the power consumption, make longer the battery life time and to improve the robustness of the system. In this paper we evaluates the performance of well-known and widely investigated in terms of energy efficiency and it also proposes a new routing algorithm that modifies AOMDV and it provides better performance compared to all the protocols in the presence of scenario with high traffic and long simulation time.
