One Hop Neighbor based Broadcast Method for Reactive Routing in Mobile Ad-hoc Network

Abstract

To overcome redundant issues of routing messages for the reactive routing protocol is become research challenge. In general, to discover route or path reactive routing protocols broadcast routing messages which may leads congestions and degrades battery power unnecessary. Though, to resolve the challenges several efficient broadcast methods have been suggested. Each method has its own procedure and results sort of advantage and disadvantages. The motive of the paper is to presents a method which is proposed to minimize redundant issue of routing messages resulted by broadcasting. Proposed method uses one hop neighbor’s knowledge to broadcast routing messages for the purpose of route discovery. Proposed method experimented through simulation software that named as NS-2. An experimental accomplish certain factors like number of nodes, routing protocol, MAC protocol etc. Proposed method evaluated on the basis of different criteria such as throughput, control overhead, routing efficiency and node remaining battery power.
