Abstract

This paper proposes a new energy efficient algorithm to find and maintain routes in mobile ad hoc networks. The proposal borrows the notion of learning from a previous research on cognitive packet networks (CPN) to create a robust routing protocol. Our idea uses smart packets that exploit the use of unicasts and broadcasts to search for routes. Because unicasts impose lower overall overhead, their use is preferred. Smart packets learn how to make good unicast routing decisions by employing a combined goal function which considers both the energy stored in the nodes and path delay. The end result is a dynamic discovery of paths that offer an equilibrium between low-delay routes and an efficient use of network resources that extends the working lifetime of the network. © 2004 Elsevier B.V.
