An Approach Towards Increasing The Throughput By Reducing Routing Overhead In MANET
Harish T. Gurme · 2015
In MANET most of the time there is link breakage problem due to the mobility of the nodes which results in frequent route discoveries. Broadcasting is a basic and useful effective data transmission mechanism in a route discovery where a movable node blindly rebroadcasts the first received route request packet except it has a route to the destination, and thus it can cause the broadcast storm problem. To optimize the broadcasting, the number of rebroadcasts should be minimized which will decrease routing overhead and energy consumption. Here proposed approach is frequency based rebroadcasting with adjacent node information for reducing routing overhead.
