Network Lifetime Improvement Using Energy Efficient Multipath ad hoc on demand distance vector routing

Abstract Mobile Ad-Hoc Network (MANET) is a collection of mobile nodes which design a temporary network. In single path routing many times conjunction are in the higher level so multiple routing protocols is design for these conditions, to find shortest and optimized path from a source to destination. Due to dynamic nature, connections in the network can change frequently and nodes can be added and removed at any time. There are various types of limitations; the biggest restriction is the limited energy of the batteries. AODV is one of famous on-demand routing protocols in MANET, which uses the RDP (route discovery process) is triggered to find a new route. In this paper, we propose that the enhanced AODV (Ad-hoc On-demand Distance Vector) routing protocol which is modified to improve the networks lifetime in MANET.
