Energy and cluster based efficient routing for broadcasting in mobile ad hoc networks

Abstract

Mobile ad hoc network is momentarily forming the network without any base or centralized nodes. In general, AODV will find the best route from the basis to endpoint for transfer the data or message. In our proposed approach is Restricted Predictive Flooding based Ad hoc On-Demand Vector (RPFAODV) protocol. RPFAODV concentrate to identify the destination node, predict the route, based on the energy level at each node, end node address through route request packet and route response packet messages. After receiving route response packet from an end node to a source node, now it initialized as a cluster for transmission of data packet towards a destination. In this proposed protocol is restricted unwanted node traversal by predicting the route from the network. It can broadcast the data or message from destination to nodes cover in their surroundings of other network broadcast area. It produces better performance compare with another prevailing routing protocol. In this paper RPFAODV protocol as well as reactive protocols AODV were studied and their individualities with admiration to different movement are evaluated based on message delivery rate, end-to-end delay, number of packets dropped and throughput using network simulator (NS2).
