Performance Analysis of ANTHOCNET and ANTDSR Protocols

Muskan ^[14] | Jaswinder Singh ^[9]

Abstract: In recent years many efforts have been made on routing the data in mobile ad hoc networks efficiently. Subsequently, several specialists have provided distinct routing protocol for ad hoc networks, especially routing protocols depending on behavior of ants. This is on the account of the utilization of genetic algorithms that has various benefits like minimized control messages, re-usability of bandwidth and enhanced power control. Various nature inspired algorithms are proposed by analysts to minimize the energy utilization in mobile ad hoc networks. The aim of the paper is to throw light on the critical issue of energy optimization in mobile ad hoc networks to minimize the total energy consumption required to route data. The paper presents ANTDSR where ratio of Euclidean distance and pheromone level is taken into account while making path between source and destination.
