  • Abstract:
  • Routing problems in mobile ad-hoc Networks have become challenging issue amidst the compelling requirements to preserve power in mobile ad-hoc Networks as the network topologies and data traffic may change rapidly in an unpredictable way.Ideally the mobile ad-hoc networks need to maintain all the nodes in active state and should exchange keep-alive packets with its neighbors. The slip side of this topology is waste of energy to keep the nodes alive also takes the toll computational complexity and extra overhead. To overcome these drawbacks there are number of protocols are being proposed to arrive Energy Efficient network with improved performance. The effectiveness of the topology control algorithms are compared with some other protocols in terms of energy consumption and throughput and other performance parameter of interest as required by the algorithms proposed. There is no universal benchmarking mechanism to evaluate the effectiveness of the algorithms. This work is trying to devise a generic effectiveness measuring method for the two important network performance parameters viz. Energy consumption and throughput by proposing the test environment parameters. Elemental node properties are derived by statistical means of exhaustive study of commonly available wireless nodes. And the routing algorithm’s performances are validated against the elemental node properties. The simulated results of the AEERG (Adaptive Energy Efficient and Reliable Gossip Routing Protocol) and AODV (Ad-hoc On Demand Distance Vector) will be computed and compared.
