Reliability design for a MANET with cluster-head gateway routing protocol

ABSTRACT A MANET is a self-configuring network connected by wireless links. In order to facilitate communication within the network, a routing protocol is used to control the traffic. One of the prominent routing protocols for MANET is CGSR. Network reliability related problems have resulted in the construction of many algorithms. The UGFT has an enterprise approach to analyze the reliability of the MANET. The emphasis in this paper has been on executing the MANET reliability using UGFT. An efficient algorithm has been proposed to guarantee the reliability of MANET using UGFT with CGSR and is validated with a case study in a military test bed.
