A Study of Energy Efficiency Location based Routing Protocols in MANET

Sudhir Goswami Mr. Chetan Agrawal Mr.Anurag Jain ([email protected]) Abstract— A Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) is a collection of mobile hosts that move in different location and mobility without the need to maintain connectivity with existing network infrastructure. If two mobile nodes are in transmission range with each other then they can communicate with each other directly otherwise the intermediate nodes in between have to forward the packets for them. It means every intermediate mobile node has to function as a router to forward the packets for others. Thus, routing is an essential operation for the MANET. Through routing procedure the number of mobile nodes in network are deliver the data in network. There are many routing protocols are proposed for mobile ad network and each protocol having a different category and function. The AODV (Ad hoc On demand Distance Vector) routing is established the connection in on demand manner means if the next node is available then in that case the sender has forward request to it and it happen till the sender is not found the destination. Energy is one of the crucial limited resources in Mobile Ad hoc Network. Nodes are in network are working in the presence of limited battery power also called energy or power then energy efficient routing is necessary for reducing energy consumption. Efficient energy routing schemes can really reduce energy consumption and extends the lifetime of the networks. Location aware protocol like DREAM is reduces the energy consumption because due to the awareness of location less number of routing packets are flooded in the network by that energy consumption are reduces. In this paper most of the most of the researchers are proposed solution of energy saving of nodes by efficient communication through them. The main aim of this research is to focus on the previous researches that had been done in field of location aware and energy efficient routing in MANET.
