GSA BASED ROUTING IN MANET?

A Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) is a system of wireless mobile nodes that dynamically selforganize in arbitrary and temporary network topologies. In the mobile ad hoc network, nodes can directly communicate with all the other nodes within their radio ranges; whereas nodes that not in the direct communication range use intermediate node(s) to communicate with each other. GSA is a nature inspired algorithm which is based on the Newton’s law of gravity and the law of motion. GSA is grouped under the population based approach and is reported to be more intuitive. The algorithm is intended to improve the performance in the exploration and exploitation capabilities of a population based algorithm, based on gravity rules. This research implements the GSA to improve the routing performance in the mobile Adhoc network. The research compares the results of the ABC based routing and the GSA based routing in MANET. The comparison parameters are PDR and end 2 end delay. The PDR of the proposed algorithm is better than the existing while the e2edelay gets reduced.
