Node Replacement and Alternate Path based Energy Efficient Routing Protocol for MANET

In the recent years, the technology of wireless ad-hoc networks has gained a lot of importance. MANET is a special case of ad-hoc wireless networks. Mobile nodes have small batteries with limited power. Large number of sensor nodes in MANET makes it impractical to replace sensor node batteries. Thus the life time of Mobile nodes is an important attribute of wireless ad-hoc networks. The life time of a MANET network is the time spent from the deployment to the instant when the network is considered non-functional. Proposed methodology present a novel alternate route selection based routing protocol for multipath energy efficient routing over MANET based on linear regression. This approach helps to enhance the network survival. The simulation results also provide the batter results as compare to previous approach.
