Rajgopal .G, Manikandan .K, Sivakumar .N . QoS Routing using Energy Parameter in Mobile Ad Hoc Network. International Journal of Computer Applications. 22, 4 ( May 2011), 11-17. DOI=10.5120/2573-3547
A Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANET) is a collection of mobile nodes that can communicate with each other using wireless links without utilizing any fixed based station infrastructure and centralized management. In the present advanced technology there are many developments in Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANET) protocols. MANET is the wireless technology used in various applications like military, mobile devices etc, so improving the performance is an advantage in it. There are different parameters taken from MANET like routing, energy consumption, latency, bandwidth, traffic, packet loss etc. In this way there are many parameters taken as issue and new protocols are designed. This paper discusses the performance and comparison of different routing protocols of Mobile ad hoc networks based on the energy level. To reduce the energy consumption in AODV, DSR, we proposed enhanced AODV and enhanced DSR. Simulations are done using NS-2 and the results show that enhanced AODV and enhanced DSR consumes less energy compared to existing protocols and also comparison of energy consumption in each protocol.
