A new routing protocol called Scalable Energy Efficient Ad-hoc on Demand Distance Vector (SEE-AODV) having good scalable properties and energy efficient than existing Ad hoc on Demand Distance (AODV) routing protocol in wireless mesh networks has been proposed in this paper. Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) consist of mesh routers and mesh clients, where mesh routers have minimal mobility and form...

A mobile ad hoc network (MANET) [1] consists of a set of mobile hosts capable of communicating with each other without the assistance of base stations. The topology of ad-hoc networks changes rapidly. The Ad hoc On Demand Distance Vector (AODV) [2] routing protocol and other ondemand routing protocols suffers with many problems like delay and packet loss caused due to link break, time required ...

In this paper, a dynamic fuzzy energy state based AODV (DFES-AODV) routing protocol for Mobile Adhoc NETworks (MANETs) is presented. In DFES-AODV route discovery phase, each node uses a Mamdani fuzzy logic system (FLS) to decide its Route REQuests (RREQs) forwarding probability. The FLS inputs are residual battery level and energy drain rate of mobile node. Unlike previous related-works, member...

In many traditional On Demand routing algorithms in Ad hoc wireless networks, a simple flooding mechanism is used to broadcast route request (RREQ) packets when there is a need to establish a route from a source node to a destination node. The broadcast of RREQ may lead to high channel contention, high packet collisions, and thus high delay to establish the routes, especially with high density ...

Mobile ad hoc networks are collection of mobile devices connected by wireless links to perform some computational tasks. This temporary arrangement does not have any infrastructure hence lacking in permanent source of energy. To fulfill this requirement these independent mobile devices are entirely dependent on battery power. The aim of this paper is to design and evaluate the performance of an...

Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) is a collection of mobile devices, a self configured, multi-hop network thus each device in network topology acts as a router. Routing protocols are necessary to find paths to reach other node. Due to mobility of nodes, routing plays an important role in communication. This paper gives an introduction to one of the MANET reactive routing protocol AODV i.e. Adhoc on...

In this paper we evaluated one of the commonly used proactive protocol–Ad hoc on demand distance vector. This paper proposes an improved assessment about the AODV protocol over different terrain condition like attitude above & below sea level etc. Here in the paper the performance of AODV protocol is judged on the basis of different layer’s performance of network model like Application, MAC, Tr...

Ad hoc mobile networking is a current active research area. They can be used in agriculture for monitoring and control of environmental parameters in the form of wireless sensor networks. The aim of this paper is performance evaluation of protocol of these Ad hoc networks i.e. QoS-enabled AODV protocol. The performance evaluation is done by means of its comparison with normal AODV protocol. QoS...

Problem statement: Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) is an emerging technology for wireless environment. Since WMNs are permanent or semi-permanent network, an efficient and reliable path establishment is the core concern for such type of networks. Several performance metrics has been designed for WMNs such as Expected Transmission Count (ETX), Expected Transmission Time (ETT), interference Aware R...
