QoS Improvement for MANET Using AODV Algorithm by Implementing Q-Learning Approach
Prakash Chandra · 2013
Ad-hoc network is a shared wireless network without any infrastructure; mobile nodes are move connected by wireless links. Quality of Service (QoS) is defined as performance agreement between the service provider and user applications based on the connection requirement qualitatively or quantitatively. As an attempt in this direction, the goal of paper is to develop Q-learning scheme, based on QoS parameters. However this approach must take taken into account the QoS parameters in Ad-hoc network: Traffic, Channel Capacity, Energy, Less number of nodes will die out,Cost to achieve Reliability (Confidence factor) .AODV protocol is studied in this aspect. Reactive protocol (AODV) is based on On- demand route discoveries that update the routing tables only for the destination that has traffic going through. The work focuses on study and performance evaluation of these categories using Matlab 7.10.
