Abstract
Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) is a collection of spontaneous nodes that form a dynamic network without any centralized administration. Routing decisions for mobile communication is a challenging task because the continuous movement of nodes increases the routing overhead and energy consumption. Numerous studies have been conducted in the field of MANET to reduce the routing decision overhead and energy consumption. Their concepts are good for improving efficiency in terms of load balancing, congestion control, and energy consumption. This article provides new concepts that are able to give better outcomes. This paper, proposes an adaptive Multipath Multichannel (N-channel) Energy Efficient (MMEE) routing approach in which route selection strategies are dependent on predictive energy consumption per packet (calculated accustomed data delivery), available bandwidth, queue length, and channel utilization. Multipath provides multiple routes and balances network load, whereas multichannel reduces network collisions via a channel ideal assignment mechanism. In the multichannel mechanism, link bandwidth is divided into multiple sub-channels. Multiple source nodes access the channel bandwidth in a simultaneous manner that minimizes the network collision. The collaborative multipath multichannel mechanism provides more than one path between a single source or multiple sources to the destination without collision and congestion. The path selection is based on the MMEE routing approach. In the proposed MMEE, a load and bandwidth aware routing method selects the path, based on node energy and predicts their lifetime, which increases the network reliability. The result shows the comparative analysis between various multichannel medium access techniques such as MMAC, Parallel Rendezvous Multi Channel Medium Access Protocol (PRMMAC), Quality of Service Ad hoc On Demand Multipath Distance Vector (QoS-AOMDV), Q-learning based Multipath Routing (QMR), Topological Change Adaptive Ad hoc On-demand Multipath Distance Vector (TA-AOMDV), and the proposed MMEE method. The outcome concludes that the MMEE method performs better than other schemes. The proposed MMEE protocol provides better performance in terms of percentage of data received, throughput, and minimum energy utilization.
