Most of the multipath on demand routing protocols are mobile Adhoc Networks suffer due to frequent changes in the network topology confined network resources such as battery capacity of nodes, security of data packets and scalability of the network. This paper has been proposed a stability and Energy Aware Reverse Adhoc On demand Distance Vector (SEAR-AODV) Routing protocol. This method is a modification of existing Reverse R-AODV routing protocol. It is based on optimization of the existing R-AODV routing protocol by computing the reliability factor (RF) of nodes that includes both energy and rout stability aware metric. SEAR-AODV uses the path with high RF value as the primary path to rout the data packets where as secondary paths are used based on the descending order of their RF values. it uses a new make-before-break route maintenance mechanism. In order to reduce the control overhead due to route recovery. a comparative study by NS2 tool signifies that the proposed protocol SEAR-AODV enhances the packet delivery fraction and reduces both the latency as well as the average consumed energy.
