Power Efficient Location Aware Routing Protocol to Improve Routing in MANET

The Mobile Adhoc network (MANET) uses the concept of dynamic topology in the wireless network. The major noteworthy issues in construction of MANET are the energy consumption by the nodes. According to the requirement of present situation a variety of energy efficient routing protocol has been suggested that helps in increasing the lifetime of the network. Emerging Trends in energy efficient routing protocols as the name suggest recognize that many approaches like clustered, genetic algorithm (GA) and so many has came in existence that helps in growing the network lifetime of energy efficient routing protocols. In this paper we proposed a novel Power Efficient Location Aware Routing (PELAR) protocol. In this protocol energy dependent nodes are growing the routing ability of AODV protocol on the source of LAR (Location Aided Routing) protocol. In network nodes are not aware about their energy status and also return flooding of routing packets is utilizes extra energy in network by that the bulk of the energy is exhausted in handshaking process. The main attempt of proposed PELAR protocol is to obtain improved the energy utilization in network. The performance of usual AODV, LAR and PELAR is show via simulation implemented on NS2 and observe that the proposed PELAR protocol decreases the energy utilization and improve the network lifetime that completely depend on the energy of mobile nodes.
