An efficient approach to reduce network partitioning using AMMNETS

Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) are one of the most important and unique applications that enable users to communicate without any fixed network infrastructure. The self-configuring capability of nodes makes it more useful among military applications and crisis management. Though MANETs are very powerful, they suffer from a serious problem known as Network Partitioning. When a Network connection between any two groups of systems fails simultaneously, it results in network partitioning. To overcome this issue, a technique called Autonomous mobile mesh network (AMMNET) has been proposed. The mobile mesh nodes of AMMNETs are used to follow the clients in the application terrain. For larger application terrain, the mesh nodes are capable to adapt a network topology to support intergroup communication. For this a distributed client tracking solution has been implemented which results in dynamic topology adaptation for the mobile clients. AMMNET provides high throughput and packet delivery ratio when compared to other techniques.
