LINK FAILURE AND ITS REVIVAL IN AOMDV PROTOCOL

MANET comprises movable nodes empowered with the ability to possess agile motion in the network without any restriction. This dynamic network forms temporary connections and topology changes consequently. Lacking the central controller all the tasks regarding security, routing, retransmission, etc are performed by the nodes themselves. It results in a self configurable and self organized form of network. As the movement in the network increases, the probability of link failure also increases. Link failure reduces the effectiveness and performance of the network. More resources are consumed during the data retransmission. In this paper, the path is revived from the genesis point of link fault occurrence using participation of adjacent nodes.
