{"title":"EALBM: Energy aware load balancing multipath routing protocol for MANETs","authors":"Sneha R. Deshmukh, V. Raisinghani","doi":"10.1109/WOCN.2014.6923061","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/WOCN.2014.6923061","url":null,"abstract":"A number of new routing protocols such as Traffic-Size Aware scheme (TSA), Dynamic Load-Aware Routing (DLAR), Load Balanced Ad Hoc Routing (LBAR), Receiver-oriented Load-balancing and Reliable Routing (RLRR)and Ring-based Energy AwareRouting (REAR) have been proposed recently to deal with load balancing in MANET. The primary objective of load balancing routing protocols is to divert traffic from routes which are currently congested. The drawback of current routing protocols is that they select paths with least node activity, least cost, least hop count, least load or those with smaller interface queues. However, if the path with the least metric will be selected every time then this could congest this path could get more loaded than others. Eventually some of the nodes along path could die. We address this problem byproposing Energy efficient and Load Balancing Multi-path(EALBM) routing protocol which uses multiple paths at the same time. EALBM is an on demand routing protocol, it has three phases of working: neighbor discovery, multipath discovery and data transmission. The source initiates multipath discovery process to determine all existing disjoint multipath from source to destination. Each disjoint path is assigneda weight based on the energy level of nodes along that path. The path with maximum energy has least weight i.e. most preferred. To validate our protocol we implemented EALBM in NS2. We created four different scenarios, static nodes with same or different energy level of nodes, and dynamic node mobility with same or different energy of nodes. Our results show that EALBM performs better than Ad hoc On demand Multipath Distance Vector (AOMDV). The throughput of EALBM is higher by 6% (static nodes) upto 16% (dynamic topology) as compared to AOMDV. The packet delivery ratio of EALBM is higher by 7% (static) upto 52% (dynamic) as compared to AOMDV. The packet loss, latency and normalized load in case of EALBM are also substantially lower than AOMDV.","PeriodicalId":149158,"journal":{"name":"2014 Eleventh International Conference on Wireless and Optical Communications Networks (WOCN)","volume":"414 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124430874","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In modern days, people prefer nuclear families where there are no one present to take care of aged people and patients due to their busy working schedule. To overcome this, they need to appoint a caregiver to take care of the patients for their diet, hygiene, medication etc. Payments given to the caregivers will affect their savings. To overcome such problems a model is needed. This model medicates the patients and aged people automatically to inform them regarding medication in time as prescribed by the Doctor. This is done by presetting the prescribed time and comparing it with RTC time. When they are equal, tablets are dispensed. The patient is given sufficient time to take the tablets. If the patient fails, a message is sent to the caregiver informing about the failure. Thus the proposed model is implemented for aged people, patients, bed-ridden and the illiterates to ensure medication at right time and simultaneously notify the caregiver if patient fails to take medications.","PeriodicalId":149158,"journal":{"name":"2014 Eleventh International Conference on Wireless and Optical Communications Networks (WOCN)","volume":"605 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123250447","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, energy efficient wireless communication is being paid increasing attention under the background of limited energy resource and environmental-friendly transmission behaviors. Recently, distributed antenna system (DAS) has shown great potential for reducing transmission power and outage for next generation cellular networks. Previously, most of the researches have not considered the random locations of both the mobile stations (MSs) and the DAS. In this paper, we suggest stochastic geometry based distributed green antenna system (DGAS) model to analyze the performance of the cellular system. Moreover, uplink DGAS is considered where MSs' locations are distributed according to homogenous Poisson point process (HPPP) and each MS is associated to the closest distributed green antenna (DGA). Further, the expressions for outage probability and the area spectral efficiency are derived over path loss and Rayleigh fading channel. Analytical results for the interference limited system show that as the distance between MS and DGA of interest increases, outage probability of the system increases.","PeriodicalId":149158,"journal":{"name":"2014 Eleventh International Conference on Wireless and Optical Communications Networks (WOCN)","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122857191","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The analytical investigation of these schemes when compared shows Hybrid Channel Allocation(HCA) has less call blocking and less interfering edges with Graph theory-node coloring algorithm. The proposed Genetic Algorithm(GA) approach performs better with HCA in reducing interfering edges, less calls are blocked and less S/I ratio than analytical results with Graph theory.","PeriodicalId":149158,"journal":{"name":"2014 Eleventh International Conference on Wireless and Optical Communications Networks (WOCN)","volume":"228 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132469238","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
