Managing Congestion Control in Mobile AD-HOC Network Using Mobile Agents
In mobile adhoc networks, congestion occurs with limited resources. The
standard TCP congestion control mechanism is not able to handle the special
properties of a shared wireless channel. TCP congestion control works very well
on the Internet. But mobile adhoc networks exhibit some unique properties that
greatly affect the design of appropriate protocols and protocol stacks in
general, and of congestion control mechanism in particular. As it turned out,
the vastly differing environment in a mobile adhoc network is highly
problematic for standard TCP. Many approaches have been proposed to overcome
these difficulties. Mobile agent based congestion control Technique is proposed
to avoid congestion in adhoc network. When mobile agent travels through the
network, it can select a less-loaded neighbor node as its next hop and update
the routing table according to the node congestion status. With the aid of
mobile agents, the nodes can get the dynamic network topology in time. In this
paper, a mobile agent based congestion control mechanism is presented.Comment: 9 Pages. IJCEA, 2014. arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with
