Communication Framework for Jointly Addressing Issues of Routing Overhead and Energy Drainage in MANET

The advancement into smart mobile devices has accelerated the adoption of various pervasive computing based ubiquitous applications, where Mobile Adhoc Network (MANET) has extended its usability from hard core military applications to civil society applications. The success for routing requires a robust computational mechanism of routing based on the collaborative framework of energy (i.e. battery power), signal strength and zonal routings. The paper presents a framework of novel routing technique in order to jointly address the problem pertaining to routing overhead and energy drainage among the mobile nodes. Different from conventional simulation mechanism, the paper presents a communication district with inclusion of auxiliary nodes for minimizing the overhead during the routing process. The outcome of the proposed study shows significant reduction in routing overhead along with energy efficiency as compared to existing AODV and DSDV protocols.
