Abstract ACO-EEAODR: An Ant-Swarm Inspired Energy-Efficient Ad Hoc On-Demand Routing Protocol for Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

As the world’s economic activities are expanding, the energy comes to the fore to the question of the sustainable growth in all technological areas, including wireless mobile networking. Energyaware routing schemes for wireless networks have spurred a great deal of recent research towards achieving this goal. Recently, an energy-aware routing protocol for MANETs (so-called energy-efficient ad hoc on-demand routing protocol (EEAODR) for MANETs was proposed, in which the energy load among nodes is balanced so that a minimum energy level is maintained and the resulting network lifetime is increased. In this paper, an Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) inspired approach to EEAODR (ACO-EEAODR) is proposed. To the best of our knowledge, no attempts have been made so far in this direction. Simulation results are provided, demonstrating that the ACO-EEAODR outperforms the EEAODR scheme in terms of energy consumed and network lifetime, chosen as performance metrics.

Research on Optimization of Routing Protocol for Quantum wireless Ad Hoc Network

This paper addresses the optimization of on-demand routing protocols for quantum wireless Ad Hoc network. This paper proposes an optimal quantum route metric algorithm that integrates quantum route metric and classic route metric to select a better route path for quantum communication. The paper also improves the route discovery protocol by proposing a "reverse synchronization method" which means after the route request is completed, the quantum entanglement channel is established synchronously when the reverse path is established. This method, better than general methods which builds quantum channels after the forward path establishment, reduces the time and the numbers of messages for quantum channel establishment, thus improving the efficiency. Accordingly, this paper elaborates the specific methods, procedures and related upgrading message formats involved in quantum route discovery, quantum channel establishment and quantum information transmission of on-demand routing protocols for quantum wireless Ad Hoc network. The advantage of the "reverse synchronization method" in reducing the time and the numbers of messages for quantum channel establishment is verified through analysis on protocol performance.

Investigation Misbehavior Configuration Nodes with Secure Neighborhood on Energy Consumption for DYMO Routing Protocol in MANETS

We calculate misbehavior of energy consumption during configuration nodes between neighborhood nodes with specific investigation on secure environment with DYMP routing Protocol. An experimental analysis of DYMO, M-DYMO (misbehavior DYMO), S-DYMO (Secure-DYMO) has been carried out using QualNet 5.1 simulator. The simulation results have been derived using self-created network scenarios by incorporating secure neighborhood in de-facto DYMO by varying the network size as small, medium and large, Node Traversal Time, ART, Buffer Size. From the experiment results, it has been concluded that energy consumption increases as security is incorporated in the existing routing protocol. From the results, the variance of total energy consumed in all modes of energy (transmit, receive and idle) for nodes in DYMO,M-DYMO and S-DYMO under Random waypoint Mobility Model is maximum for larger network size which is 3.380037 mj , 3.363414 mj and 3.612123 mj. For random waypoint mobility model the variance of total energy consumed in all modes of energy is maximum at 0.2320866668 at 115 nodes. In this research paper, an effort has been made to investigate the impact of secure neighborhood on energy consumption and QoS metrics of Dynamic MANETs On-Demand (routing protocol) (DYMO) in MANETS.

Performance investigations of internet protocol versions for mobile Ad-hoc network based on qualnet simulator

<span>A mobile ad hoc network (MANET) can be seen as a mobile nodes collection having no support of fixed infrastructure and therefore its communication is totally dependent on the network's nodes. As a result of the mobility of nodes, rapid and unpredictable changes occur within the mobile ad hoc network (MANET) arrangements. Therefore, this makes the analysis of routing protocols very crucial so as to enhance efficient communication between the wireless nodes. IPv4 and IpV6 within the MANET is another issue of concern. IPv4 which has been traditionally used for ages and IPv6; predicted to be the forthcoming network architecture model is investigated because of its protection which has been improved as well as its enormous address space provision. The analysis on Ad Hoc On Demand Vector and Dynamic Manet On Demand routing protocols are performed using Qualnet simulator under the IPv4 and IPv6 standards. A thorough evaluation of the usability and functionality of the simulator software is carried out. The metrics for performance are; Throughput, End-to-End Delay and Average jitter. Afterwards, analyses and summary of the results is conducted and summarized in order to make available an assessment of their performances.</span>
