Abstract

Routing overhead in mobile ad hoc network (MANET) can be reduced by maintaining multiple paths between the communicating nodes. This way, when one path fails, an alternate path can be readily used without resorting to a fresh route discovery. Ad hoc on-demand multipath distance vector (AOMDV) protocol is a link disjoint, loop-free multipath protocol, well suited for MANET. It uses hop count to choose the path. As the nodes in MANET are powered by battery, the residual energy of the node is a crucial factor in deciding the lifetime of the path. Because, nodes with the lower residual energy may drain off earlier, resulting in link failure. Moreover, the protocol selects an alternate path only on link failure. When a link breaks, packets may be dropped and additional control packets are required to re-establish the route. Instead of taking action after a link failure, a node can monitor the strength of the received signal and take necessary action, when the signal strength falls below a threshold level. The proposed routing protocol, namely reliable energy and link AOMDV (REL-AOMDV) takes it to consider both these factor during the route discovery and maintenance. Simulation of the proposed protocol in NS2 shows that, with the increase in node mobility, REL-AOMDV shows a lower routing overhead and a lower delay as compared to the original protocol.
