Energy-Aware Performance Metric for AODV and DSDV Routing Protocols in Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks
In Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks (MANETs), mobile devices
are equipped with power (energy). In order to utilize this
energy equipped devices efficiently for transmission of
data packets, many energy aware routing strategies are
followed. As a key note to these routing strategies, the
energy aware performance metrics are analyzed on two
routing protocols like Ad-Hoc On Demand Distance
Vector Protocol (AODV) and Destination Sequenced
Distance Vector Routing Protocol (DSDV). The
comparison results prove that AODV protocol can be
adopted for any routing strategy, in order to increase the
performance of the network lifetime in comparison with
DSDV.
