MBA-OLSR: A Multipath Battery Aware Routing Protocol for MANETs

Recently, the proliferation of the smart mobile devices with embedded sensors, computing resources, and wireless technologies have enabled mobile ad hoc networks(MANETs) to play a key role for the emergence of the concept of "Smart City". However, the mobile node's battery has limited capacity and represents a constraint for MANETs. Constructing a power aware and efficient routes has received a great attention from researchers as a significant issue to maximize the network lifetime. In this context, this paper proposes a Multipath Battery Aware routing protocol namely: MBA-OLSR which is based on Multipath Optimized Link State Routing Protocol (MP-OLSR). To improve energy efficiency during routing, the MBA-OLSR considers the residual battery of the mobile node as a metric to find the initial cost of the multiple links. The proposed MBA-OLSR provides a major enhancement in node lifetime, and QoS metrics against variation in simulation time in different simulation models.
