Abstract

Nodes in Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) communicate wirelessly without any dedicated infrastructure and administrative control. In MANETs, routing decisions are always susceptible to route failure due to node mobility and limited battery capacity. Ad hoc On Demand Distance Vector (AODV) is a widely used on demand routing protocol as it swiftly responds to the changes in topological network. However, it does not consider condition of nodes and links which may degrade routing performance due to node or link failure. In this paper, we propose an approach, named Stable - Ad hoc On Demand Distance Vector to improve routing performance of AODV by providing more stability in the route. During route discovery operation node’s residual energy and link’s quality which is estimated through received signal power are compared against their respective dynamic threshold values for subsequent hop selection. If both the values are above their respective thresholds, the node increases stability factor of a route by one before forwarding the route request (RREQ) packet. This process continues till the destination node is reached. If at a later stage, identical RREQ packet with better stability factor arrives, the node processes that duplicate packet. Additionally, local neighbourhood information is maintained through hello mechanism. Whenever a node receives a hello message from its neighbor, it updates neighbour table based on its current residual energy and link connectivity status using distance and hello message delay parameters. Simulation results prove that the proposed algorithm performs better in terms of packet delivery ratio, throughput, delay, control message overhead and normalized routing load.
