Abstract

A mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is one consisting of a set of mobile hosts capable of communicating with each other without the assistance of base stations. Earlier research has proposed several unipath routing protocols specifically on MANET, but most studies have not focused on the limitations of battery resource. To alleviate these problems, a new routing protocol called energy-aware grid multipath routing (EAGMR) protocol is proposed. The proposed protocol can conserve energy and provide the best path to route according to probability. Simulation results indicate that this new energy-aware protocol can save energy of mobile hosts and improve data packet delivery ratio
