Abstract
Wireless mobile ad hoc stations have limited battery capacity. Hence, ad hoc routing protocols ought to be energy conservative. However, The simulation studies carried out for table-driven and on-demand ad hoc routing protocols fall short of examining essential power-based performance metrics, such as average node and network lifetime, energy-based protocol fairness, average dissipated energy per protocol, and standard deviation of the energy dissipated by each individual node. In this paper, we present a thorough energy-based performance study of power-aware routing protocols for wireless mobile ad hoc networks. Our energy consumption model is based on a detailed implementation of the IEEE 802.11 physical layer convergence protocol (PLCP) and medium access control (MAC) sublayers. To our best knowledge, this is the first such detailed performance study. Moreover, we propose some novel enhancements to routing in wireless ad hoc networks that enables the admission of flows without jeopardizing the limited energy of the wireless stations.
