A Novel routing protocol based on multipath routing for mobile adhoc networks

Abstract: Ad-hoc networks consist of a set of mobile nodes with a restricted power supply resources that can communicate with each other without any established infrastructure or centralized administration.In modern days communication plays a very important role. By considering the wireless communication networks Adhoc networks plays dominant role. The main problem of Adhoc network is route failure. To improve the life time of network different routing protocols are consider. In present routing protocols of ad hoc networks, routing is an act of moving information from a source to destination in an internetwork. Route is selected in the route discovery phase until all the packets are sent out. Due to the continuous flow of packets in a selected route leads to the route failure. In order to reduce this problem a novel routing protocol based on multipath considering the percentage of the optimum value is proposed. In this paper, the analysis of the performance of different routing protocols like DSR, MBCR and MMBCR to get maximum optimum value using Network Simulator Software is carried out.

Keywords: Ad hoc network, Route discovery phase, optimum value.
