ABSTRACT = {The routing protocol for an ad hoc network should be efficient in utilizing the available resources to 
prolong the network lifetime. A Multi Criterion Fuzzy based Energy Efficient Routing Protocol (MCFEER) 
for Ad hoc Networks selects the path on constraints like bandwidth, battery life, hop count and buffer 
occupancy. In the route discovery phase, fuzzy system is applied for optimal route selection by 
destination node leading to successful data transmission. Multiple stable paths are preserved in route 
cache for usage during the route maintenance phase. The results are competitive when compared with 
Power aware Energy Efficient Routing (PEER) protocol using standard metrics, which ensures better 
network quality and efficiency.},
