A mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a collection of mobile nodes that dynamically form a temporary network without using any existing network infrastructure. MANET selects a path with minimal number of intermediate nodes to reach the destination node. As the distance between each node increases, the quantity of transmission power increases. The power level of nodes affects the simplicity with which a route is constituted between a couple of nodes. This study utilizes the swarm intelligence technique through the artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm to optimize the energy consumption in a dynamic source routing (DSR) protocol in MANET. The proposed algorithm is called bee DSR (BEEDSR). The ABC algorithm is used to identify the optimal path from the source to the destination to overcome energy problems. The performance of the BEEDSR algorithm is compared with DSR and bee-inspired protocols (BeeIP). The comparison was conducted based on average energy consumption, average throughput, average end-to-end delay, routing overhead, and packet delivery ratio performance metrics, varying the node speed and packet size. The BEEDSR algorithm is superior in performance than other protocols in terms of energy conservation and delay degradation relating to node speed and packet size.

Energy consumption of nodes during the transmission is an important factor for the efficiency and lifetime of a mobile ad hoc network. The reduction in consumption of energy can be achieved, only when its consumption at each step is known. The purpose of this paper is to formulate the mathematical model of energy consumption of network on the basis on links and available nodes in order to formulate the energy optimization function. The probability of link failure in route and innetwork have been taken into consideration as constraints while formulating the objective function of estimated energy consumption, as the low connectivity is one of the challenges due to mobility in ad hoc network.


Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) is a self-organized wireless network with no central control station or no rigid infrastructure. The main objective of the ad hoc network is that the nodes move arbitrarily that needs the routing protocols to rapidly counter the change of network topology. Limited energy resource availability is the core issue in MANET. For energy efficiency enhancement, this research has acquainted a hybrid routing algorithm which is an amalgamation of Ad hoc On-Demand Distance Vector Routing (AODV) and Temporally-Ordered Routing Algorithm (TORA) routing protocols for the route discovery process using Low Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy (LEACH). Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm has been used for the optimization if some sort of distortion occurs within the network. The simulation has been executed in MATLAB simulation tool using QoS parameters, such as throughput, energy consumption, PDR and delay. Comparative analysis has been done to portray the proposed work effectiveness.


Mobile Ad hoc Network is a decentralized network which can be deployed instantly. Routing is a very challenging task in this network due to dynamic movement of mobile nodes. Various routing protocols such as OLSR, DYMO and ZRP are proposed to establish the route for the data packets in MANET’s. As deploying of the protocols into real environment is a cost expensive process, the protocols are initially evaluated through a simulated arena. Many of the mobile devices are battery equipped and each protocol consumes energy in different manner. In this paper, energy consumption evaluation is carried out on OLSR, DYMO and ZRP protocols in a grid environment. The experiments have shown that DYMO protocol has less energy consumption when compared to OLSR and ZRP protocols.

The network in which the nodes can enter or leave the network as per their need is known as mobile ad-hoc network. This is a self-configuring type of network and so the routing in this type of network is very difficult. Numerous routing protocols are involved here which are classified on the basis of their properties into reactive, proactive and hybrid protocols. There are several important parameters such as delay, packet loss and throughput. These parameters are utilized for checking the performance of three routing protocols namely AODV, DSR and DSDV within this research. In comparison to the other protocols, the AODV routing protocol provides better results. In order to provide efficient path establishment from source to destination, enhancement has been proposed here within the AODV protocol which includes the utilization of cuckoo search and bee colony named bio-inspired techniques in it. The nodes that are found to be common in the selected paths are chosen to be the best nodes for the path. The NS2 tool is used for performing the simulations. As per the results achieved it can be seen that the AODV protocol provides better results in terms of the above mentioned parameters.
