EFFICIENT ENERGY BASED CONGESTION CONTROL SCHEME FOR MOBILE AD HOC NETWORKS
S. Sheeja, Ramachandra V. Pujeri · 2014
In recent years, MANET is the popular and growing network used in various applications. Here the mobile nodes are randomly moving without any access point. Due to mobility of nodes, energy consumption of the network goes higher. More energy consumption occurs due to retransmission of packets and occurrence of packet loss unlimitedly. So the main goal of the network is to ensure more energy efficiency. To provide minimum energy consumption and avoiding more congestion, energy consumption model and multipath routing scheme is needed in networks. In this research paper, we developed an Efficient Energy based Congestion Control Scheme (EECCS) for congestion avoidance and to improve energy efficiency of the mobile nodes. Here the cross layer design is deployed to improve the network performance. The multipath routing is focussed to avoid congestion and to increase network lifetime. We also demonstrated the energy consumption mathematical model to illustrate the node’s minimum energy consumption level in the network. Probability of the retransmission of packets is reduced with the help of calculating the energy level of data and acknowledgment packets. By using extensive simulation, the proposed scheme achieves minimum energy consumption, low packet loss ratio, high packet delivery ratio, low end to end delay and overhead than our previous schemes like ECAS, CLSMRSCA.
