Abstract

A Mobile Ad hoc NETwork (MANET) is a self-configuring network that is not reliant on infrastructure. This paper introduces a new multipath routing method based on the Multi-Hop Routing (MHR) technique. MHR is the consecutive selection of suitable relay nodes to send information across nodes that are not within direct range of each other. Failing to ensure good MHR leads to several negative consequences, ultimately causing unsuccessful data transmission in a MANET. This research work consists of three portions. The first to attempt to propose an efficient MHR protocol is the design of Priority Based Dynamic Routing (PBDR) to adapt to the dynamic MANET environment by reducing Node Link Failures (NLF) in the network. This is achieved by dynamically considering a node’s mobility parameters like relative velocity and link duration, which enable the next-hop selection. This method works more efficiently than the traditional protocols. Then the second stage is the Improved Multi-Path Dynamic Routing (IMPDR). The enhancement is mainly focused on further improving the Quality of Service (QoS) in MANETs by introducing a QoS timer at every node to help in the QoS routing of MANETs. Since QoS is the most vital metric that assesses a protocol, its dynamic estimation has improved network performance considerably. This method uses distance, linkability, trust, and QoS as the four parameters for the next-hop selection. IMPDR is compared against traditional routing protocols. The Network Simulator-2 (NS2) is used to conduct a simulation analysis of the protocols under consideration. The proposed tests are assessed for the Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR), Packet Loss Rate (PLR), End-to-End Delay (EED), and Network Throughput (NT).
