An Innovative Prediction of Link Failure and Node Lifetime in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks Using Grey Wolf Optimization

Abstract

The Path Restoration System in Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) was tough due to the changing environment. Data packets are lost if a link is broken while delivering information, and the system is vulnerable to various assaults. Considering this, we propose the Grey Wolf Optimization technique (GWO) to predict connection failure, link and node lifetime before broadcasting packets to avoid packet loss. To define the path, we used the Route Information Protocol (RIP). Following that, GWO is manually played; with this method, this research forecasts the node and lifetime, and achieves a packet delivery ratio of 0.7. The proposed Gray-Wolf algorithm achieves an efficient packet transmission rate and improves the early detection of links and node lifetimes to maintain path stability for data transmission. The proposed model reduces end-to-end delay, overhead, and packet drop. It improves the residual energy of nodes and the packet delivery ratio. Grey Wolf Optimization is one of many examining boosting methods activated by the grouping within the wolf family and the special hunting techniques used by grey wolves. As a result, the Grey Wolf optimization method was used to find the optimal result by mocking the overall characteristics of the grey wolf colony.

Link Break Prediction Routing Protocols a Survey

“…Bandani et al [20] proposed Route Information Protocol (RIP) in which Grey Wolf Optimization technique (GWO) is used to predict connection failure, link and node lifetime before broadcasting packets to avoid packet loss. GWO will update the node status Information prior to transmission, reducing the likelihood of packet loss.…”
