  • Abstract
    The paper presents an energy aware algorithm to construct virtual backbone in ad hoc networks. The connected dominating set has been used to identify backbone nodes. The constructed backbone adapts according to the changing energy level of dominator nodes leading to significant increase in the network lifetime.
