MEA-DSR: A Multipath Energy-aware Routing Protocol for Wireless Ad Hoc Networks

چکیده
This paper presents a novel multipath energy aware routing for wireless ad hoc network. A deep analysis of different routing metrics such as MBCR, MMBCR and MDR have been led out and the Minimum Drain Rate metric has been selected as energy metric to integrate in the Multipath DSR protocol. Performance comparison with an energy efficient DSR (DSR-MDR) has been presented showing the benefits of the multiple route selection. An update mechanism and a simple data packet scheduling among the energy efficient paths have also been implemented to update the source route cache and for improving the traffic and energy load balancing. Comparison of Multipath DSR with MDR, cache update and round robin scheduling (MEA-DSR) has been also compared with Multipath DSR with MDR metric without cache update mechanism (MDSR-MDR). Simulation results confirm the improvements associated to multipath extension with energy aware metric with respect to the MDR-DSR (unipath routing).

A Multipath Energy-Aware On demand Source Routing Protocol for Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks
Energy consumption is the most challenging issue in routing protocol design for mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs), since mobile nodes are battery powered. Furthermore, replacing or recharging batteries is often impossible in critical environments such as in military or rescue missions. In a MANET, the energy depletion of a node does not affect the node itself only, but the overall network lifetim...
