Enhanced Power aware Multipath Routing Protocol for MANETs
Abstract
The tremendous developments in wireless technology made Mobile Ad hoc Networks(MANETs)
inevitable in our day to day life.MANET is a set of mobile nodes or devices with dynamically varying
topology which does depend on any pre-existing infrastrure.These mobile nodes are run by batteries with
limited capacity. Power failure of nodes and unnecessary energy consumption are the critical issues in energy
efficient routing of MANETs.So more efficient power aware routing is required. The Enhanced Power aware
Multipath Routing (EPMR) protocol efficiently utilizes the energy of nodes and resources .Thus increases
reliability and the lifetime of the network . The simulation tool used is NS2.Simulation results show that the
energy consumption of the network is less after applying EPMR protocol and shows better throughput and
packet delivery ratio
