MRA: Multi-level routing algorithm to balance the traffic load in wireless Ad hoc network

Abstract

A critical requirement in the design of Ad hoc networks is the development of an efficient routing protocol which provides efficient communication. The node's in MANET have limited communication resources such as bandwidth, buffer space, battery power etc. The resource constraints in MANET require the traffic to be fairly distributed among the mobile host. Multi-level routing algorithm proposed in this paper facilitates an efficient method for communication with mobile node's. It reduces the communication overhead by fairly distributing the traffic among the wireless nodes. It selects the intermediate node's which have the enough resources and capability to handle the information transmitted in order to reach the destination node. The routing algorithm becomes more suitable as the mobile nodes move, it reduces the average end to end delay and increases the number of control packets sent with respect to increase in the number of node's.

SLBQT-Dsr: Source-Based Load Balancing Routing Algorithm Under Constraints of Quality of Transmision for Manet

“…By simulation method, the authors have proved that LMP-DSR protocol improved the network performance in terms of average delay, packet delivery ratio and throughput compared with original DSR protocol. In [6], a multi-level routing algorithm (MRA) has been proposed to balance the traffic load in wireless ad hoc network. MRA uses an efficient method of selecting the intermediate nodes which have the enough resources and capability to reach the destination node.…”

“…This shows that the network resources are not used effectively. In order to improve the efficiency of the network resources, the load balancing routing is one of the effective solutions that is used for MANET [6,8,10,14,15,20,21]. However, in the case of MANET with the wide area and high node density, the load balancing routing techniques can decrease the QoT due to the fact that the data transmission routes can pass through multiple hops.…”

QoT AWARE LOAD BALANCING ROUTING IN MANET USING RELAY TYPE OF AMPLIFY AND FORWARD BASED COOPERATIVE COMMUNICATIONS

“…For the architecture, several published works have focused on the cross-layer model [2][3][4], software-defined networking architecture [5][6][7][8]. For the control protocols, some research groups have also been interested in the optimal routing protocols such as the QoT aware routing [9][10][11][12], the load balancing routing [13][14][15][16], the security-aware routing [17,18]. Among the optimal routing protocols, the load balancing routing is the most effective solution to improve the MANET performance in terms of the packet loss probability, packet delivery ratio, and network throughput.…”
