Fuzzy logic-based stable multipath routing protocol for mobile ad hoc networks

Abstract

This paper presents a fuzzy logic stable-backbonebased multipath routing protocol (FLSBMRP) for MANET that provides a high-quality path for communication between nodes. The proposed protocol has two main phases. The first phase is the selection of candidate nodes using a fuzzy logic technique. The second phase is the construction of a routing backbone that establishes multiple paths between nodes through the candidate nodes, thus forming a routing backbone. If any candidate node in the path fails due to a lack of bandwidth, residual energy or link quality, an alternate path through another candidate node is selected for communication before the route breaks, because a candidate node failure may lead to a broken link between the nodes. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed protocol performs better in terms of the packet delivery ratio, overhead, delay and packet drop ratio than the major existing ad hoc routing protocols.

Fuzzy Clustering with Multi-Constraint QoS Service Routing in Wireless Sensor Networks

“…The heuristic search algorithm is used to find the minimum path length from the source to the receiving node. The aggregated data packets are routed from the originating CH to the receiving node along the selected route [11]. Energy-aware routing protocols have been proposed for WSNs.…”

“…Most of them are energy savers and there is not much focus on energy balancing. Though, the lifetime of WSNs severely depend energy use; so, energy management is a necessary job to be considered [11], [12]. The energy aware routing protocol -FEAR which balances energy and energy saving, is considered.…”

ANFIS Aided AODV Routing Protocolfor Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

“…Jiang et al (2005) proposes routing protocol that uses the probability concept, Farkas et al (2008) and Singhal and Daniel (2014) uses fuzzy based uses pattern matching approach to evaluate the node stability that increases the trust among nodes. Mallapur and Patil (2014) proposed fuzzy logic system based routing protocol for MANET that choose high quality path among the nodes. Pasupuleti et al (2002;Song and Fang, 2006;Sheng et al, 2006), proposed adaptive routing algorithm based on fuzzy theory which aims to solve traffic management problem and achieve good trade-off between quality of service (QoS) and network performance.…”
