Mobile ad hoc networks contain mobile wireless devices that autonomously organize their infrastructure. Its performance depends on the worth of various parameters, like variety of nodes and mobile connections. Multi-path routing permits building and use of multiple paths for routing between a source-destination combine. It exploits the resource redundancy and variety within the underlying network to supply advantages like fault tolerance, load balancing, information measure aggregation, improvement in QoS metrics and end to end delay. During this planned work is changing Dynamic source Routing Single path Protocol into Multi-path Routing with construct of Load balancing. In this planed work we are modifying Dynamic Source Routing Single path Protocol into Load Balanced Multi-path Dynamic Source Routing (LMP-DSR). In the LMP-DSR we introduce two data structure Route Cache and Load Table. The Source node maintains up to 5 paths in its ROUTE CAHCE which it receives as a result of Route Discovery process. While selecting the route it keeps track of load balancing by checking the count, it maintains in LOAD TABLE for the multiple paths available for the given target. To manage this, a new data structure called “LOAD TABLE” is introduced which maintains the count of packets transmitted on a given route. Hence we improve Average Delay, Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR) and Through Put of original DSR.
