Multi-constrained Routing Algorithm Based on Mobile Agent for Mobile Ad Hoc Networks
Zhang Xiumei · Journal of Southwest Jiaotong University · 2010
In order to solve the problem with the constraints of energy and available bandwidth,a routing algorithm based on mobile agents was proposed.It uses mobile agents to collect the information of all mobile nodes.This algorithm has a strong routing stability because it selects links with the largest link expiration time.A multi-path strategy is adopted to reduce the time consumption of rerouting.Furthermore,the node with more remaining battery will be first selected to extend the survival time of network.Experiments were conducted with network simulator NS2 to evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm.The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm has a higher packet deliver ratio and a lower average end-to-end delay than the AODV(ad-hoc on-demand distance vector) routing.
