Power Aware AODV Routing Protocol for MANET

Computation and routing in Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) is strongly co-related with power resource. Recent trend is to minimize the power consumption and maximize the computation without hampering the quality of service in MANET. To increase durability, battery resource of a node that has more power than its neighbor nodes could be used for routing and computation. In this paper a power aware routing scheme based on AODV protocol is presented. The protocol focuses on increasing network lifetime by taking into account residual capacity of the nodes with respect to its neighbors, its internal load as well as no. of message transfers. The protocol finds durable routes having nodes with more residual energy. The results achieved demonstrate the robustness of the proposed algorithm.
