MDSR to Reduce Link Breakage Routing Overhead in MANET  Using PRM

Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering) - Year 2013, Vol 11, Issue 1

Abstract

 Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) algorithm is simple and best suited for high mobility nodes in wireless ad hoc networks. Due to high mobility in ad-hoc network, route may not exit for long time. Hence, DSR  algorithm finds an alternative route when the existing communicating route goes down. It becomes a time  consuming process if the communicating route fails frequently. In order to avoid this, we propose a modification  to the existing DSR protocol named as Modified Dynamic Source Routing (MDSR) Protocol. In this paper, we  add a link breakage prediction algorithm to the Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) protocol. The mobile node uses  signal power strength from the received packets to predict the link breakage time, and sends a warning to the  source node of the packet if the link is soon-to-be-broken. The source node can perform a pro-active route  rebuild to avoid disconnection. Intermediate nodes in the route continuously monitor the signal strength at the  time of communication, based on a predefined threshold signal value. Intermediate node sends a message to the source node that the route is likely to be disconnected, if signal strength falls below the threshold value. If  source receive this message it starts using backup route and if back route also fails then it finds alternative  route. The backup route will minimize the time consuming process of finding an alternative route to some extent. Addition of link breakage prediction to DSR can significantly reduce the total number of dropped data packets  (by at least 25%). Security to the packets in the MANET is provided by employing a message encryption  technique using the concept of deceptive text which ensures confidentiality and authentication to the data
