Abstract

The characteristics of ad hoc networks make the QoS support a very complex process unlike traditional networks. The nodes in ad hoc wireless networks have limited power capabilities. The node failure in the network leads to different problems such as network topology changes, network partitions, packet losses and low signal quality. Many QoS routing protocols like Predictive location based QoS routing protocol (PLBQR), Ticket based QoS routing, Trigger based distributed QoS routing (TDR) protocol ,Bandwidth routing(BR) protocol, Core extracted distributed routing (CEDAR) protocol have been proposed. However these algorithms do not consider the node failures and their consequences in the routing. Thus most of the routing protocols do not perform well in frequent or unpredictable node failure conditions. Node Failure Predication QoS Routing” (NFPQR) scheme provides an optimal route selection by predicting the possibility of failure of a node through its power level. The NFPQR protocol has been modified as C-NFPQR (Clustered NFPQR) in order to provide power optimization using clustered based approach. The performance of the NFPQR and C-NFPQR is evaluated through the same QoS parameters.

Highlights

  • Ad hoc Network is a wireless network consisting of a collection of mobile nodes with no fixed infrastructure

  • One of the major research issues is related to these networks is quality of service (QoS) routing

  • A HEAD node prepares a list of its member nodes, which are joined to the HEAD node, form the broadcast of LINK messages received from one hop neighbors

Summary

INTRODUCTION

Ad hoc Network is a wireless network consisting of a collection of mobile nodes with no fixed infrastructure. Networking infrastructure refers to the facility of which sole purpose is network management and routing. The network nodes communicate with one another over scarce wireless channel in multi hop fashion. Each node behaves as a router and it takes part in discovery and maintenance of routes to other nodes in the network. The main characteristics of this network are dynamic topology, bandwidth constraint, variable capacity links, power constrained operation, limited physical security and quickly deployable. One of the major research issues is related to these networks is quality of service (QoS) routing
