Mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) are infrastructure free networks, temporary in nature and without any centralized authority. These unique characteristics coupled with the increased vulnerability of MANET for security attacks demand an immediate solution for securing the ad hoc network, prior to its full-fledged deployment in commercial and military applications. So far, most of the research in M...

A Mobile Ad hoc NETwork (MANET) is an interconnected of mobile nodes without any fixed base station in the network. Broadcasting is used in most of the reactive routing protocols for route discovery. Broadcasting increases the routing overhead and end-to-end delay as well as decreases packet delivery ratio. To solve this, the load balanced routing protocol have been proposed, and compare with t...

Mobile ad hoc network is a self-configuring, self organizing and decentralized network. It is connected by wireless links. Each device in a MANET is free to move independently in any direction. Hence it can change its links to other devices frequently. It is a collection of mobile wireless nodes that can dynamically form a network without using any pre-existing infrastructure. Due to characteri...

Wireless Mobile ad-hoc network (MANET) is an emerging technology and have great strength to be applied in critical situations like battlefields and commercial applications such as building, traffic surveillance, MANET is infrastructure less, with no any centralized controller exist and also each node contain routing capability, Each device in a MANET is independently free to move in any directi...

To support QoS routing in MANET (mobile ad hoc networks) is a core issue in the research of MANET. Numerous studies have shown the difficulty for provision of quality-of-service (QoS) guarantee in Mobile Ad hoc networks. This paper proposes a scheme referred to a cluster-based QoS multipath routing protocol (CQMRP) that provides QoS-sensitive routes in a scalable and flexible way in mobile Ad H...

Mobile Ad-Hoc Network (MANET) is a dynamic, multi-hop and autonomous network composed of light wireless mobile nodes. Multicast has great importance in MANET due to their inherent broadcast capability. However, due to the dynamic topology of MANETs to build optimal multicast trees and maintaining group membership a lot many control messages required. These overhead consume the mobile node resou...

Mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a set of wireless mobile computer forming a temporary network with out any wired infrastructure, due to dynamic nature of topology and other constraints transmission routing is a challenging task in MANET. k path splittable routing establish at most k paths between single source and single destination node, this scheme provides better load balancing and increase...

Abstract— Recent advances in wireless and micro electronic communications have enabled the development of a new type of wireless network called mobile ad hoc networks. MANETs are currently the greatest innovation in the field of telecommunications. A Mobile Ad hoc Wireless Network (MANET) is a collection of autonomous nodes that communicate with each other by forming a multi-hop network, mainta...

In mobile ad-hoc network (MANET), secure routing is a challenging issue due to its open nature, infrastructure less property and mobility of nodes. The lack of static infrastructure causes several issues in mobile ad hoc network (MANET) environment, such as node authentication and secure routing. In this paper we propose a new protocol for secure routing of data packets in MANET. The approach i...

Mobile Ad Hoc network (MANET) is a multi-hop temporary autonomous system of mobile nodes with wireless transmitters and receivers without the aid of pre-established network infrastructure. With the development of network and demand of users, QoS has become one of the focus issues. Some of the routing protocols provide QoS performance; however, more work is required in developing scalable ad hoc...
