Congestion Control Techniques in MANET: A Survey

Abstract

This paper is concerned with a crucial problem of MANET which is congestion control (CongClt). CongClt can be described as a mechanism used to control congestion (Cong) and keep the traffic below the capacity of the network. Many approaches have been proposed to overcome CongClt in Ethernet as well as in MANET. Controlling the Cong in MANET is quite difficult due to its fundamental characteristics. This discussion is centered on CongClt in MANET. In this work we discussed some of the CongClt techniques along with characteristics and working.
