Load-Balanced Energy-Enhanced Routing Protocol for Clustered Bee-Ad Hoc MANETs

To make MANETs energy efficient and to balance the load swarm intelligence along with clustering as Bee-Ad Hoc-C has been chosen as the best method in our previous work with improvized routing by the use of BCN. But in this routing technique optimum load balancing and energy efficiency have not been improved much. In the present paper, one new routing algorithm has been introduced which takes care of the above factors. Here, the energy efficiency is increased by taking into consideration the number of nodes in the cluster and remaining battery power of the nodes. Also to avoid any redundancy in the routing alternate router has been initiated if any shortest path is busy. The work is carried using the NS2 (Network Simulator-2). By the proposed method, the MANET routing can be properly balanced and improved in terms of Energy Efficiency, End-to-end delay, Throughput, Packet Delivery Ratio, Route Discovery Time.
