A Multi-Agent Routing Protocol with Congestion Control for MANET
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper discusses a routing protocol that uses multi-agents to reduce network congestion for a Mobile Ad hoc NETwork (MANET). MANET is a multihop wireless network in which the network components such as PC, PDA and mobile phones are mobile. The components can communicate with each other without going through a server. Two kinds of agents are engaged in routing. One is a Routing Agent that collects information about network congestion as well as link failure. The other is a Message Agent that uses this information to get to their destination nodes. MAs correspond to data packets and determine their direction autonomously using an evaluation function. We developed both a simulation environment and protocols, and performed simulations under different conditions of mobility and traffic patterns to demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach. Keywords—agent-based modeling, communication networks and protocols, network simulation, multi-agent systems, mobile ad-hoc network

Improvement of the mechanism of congestion avoidance in mobile networks
Mobile ad hoc network congestion control is a significant problem. Standard mechanism for congestion control (TCP), the ability to run certain features of a wireless network, several mutations are not common. In particular, the enormous changes in the network topology and the joint nature of the wireless network. It also creates significant challenges in mobile ad hoc networks (MANET), density ...
متن کاملThe Impact of Tcp Congestion Window Size on the Performance Evaluation of Mobile Ad Hoc (manet) Routing Protocols
A mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a temporary collection of mobile nodes randomly moved within a limited terrain area. The nodes are connected to form a wireless network without use any communication infrastructure. Because of the limiting resources of MANET nodes, multiple hops scheme is proposed for data exchange across the network. Varieties of mobile ad hoc routing protocols have been deve...

In mobile ad hoc network (MANET), congestion is one of the most important limitations that affect the performance of the whole network. TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) are the reliable protocol for communication because of their connection oriented behavior. Multi-path routing protocol can balance and share the load better than the single path routing protocol in ad hoc networks, thereby re...

Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANET) can be considered as a class of unstructured networks created by a number of autonomous wireless and sensor nodes. The inherent characteristics of such networks have made specific applications, such as multimedia transfer and challenging. Basically, the functionality of a node and very few resources directly affect the delivery of packets which depends on the ...
متن کاملA Survey on Congestion Control Technique in MANET/Review Paper
-The purpose of this research is to study and analyze various congestion control mechanisms using a number of routing protocols in Mobile Adhoc Network (MANET). As MANET is infrastructureless network so node movement and data load traffic which exceeds the network capacity, can not be predicted which leads to problem of congestion. The objective of this paper is to design a comparative analysis...
