Abstract
Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) is having a wide variety of applications, thanks to the flexibility in the architecture and current state of technology. MANET is a network of wireless nodes with no predefined fixed infrastructure or centralized administration. Nodes in the network are highly mobile and the topology change is dynamic. On account of the frequent movement of the nodes the topology is unpredictable, thereby disturbing the stable routing in MANET. In order to make the routing process efficient, this paper proposes to enhance the utilization of Domination nodes. The proposed method, Reliable Dominating set Based Routing (RDBR), selects the best Dominating set based on the packet delivery ratio (PDR) and the residual energy of the nodes, thereby ensuring the stability in routing. Simulation study demonstrates the efficiency of the RDBR algorithm in terms of PDR, packet drop, throughput, overhead and delay compared to other on demand routing algorithms AODV and DSR.
