Enhancement of accuracy metrics for energy levels in MANETs ?
Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) are wireless, self-organizing and infrastructure-less networks with nodes that rely on power. Hence, there is a need for an energy-aware and energy-efficient routing protocol. To enhance the lifetime of nodes and network performance, intervals such as the Hello-Interval and TC-Interval of the optimized link state routing (OLSR) protocol are tuned. Additionally, the residue forecast algorithm is incorporated with the protocol, yielding the Hello-Interval 1, TC-Interval 3 residue forecasted optimized link state routing (HTR-OLSR) protocol. In addition, the modified multipoint relay (MPR) selection plays a vital role in energy consideration. In the case of dynamic networks, a gain in throughput of approximately 10% to 15% is obtained.
