Adaptive link-weight routing protocol using cross-layer communication for MANET
Routing efficiency is one of the challenges offered by Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANETs). This
paper proposes a novel routing technique called Adaptive Link-Weight (ALW) routing protocol. ALW
adaptively selects an optimum route on the basis of available bandwidth, low delay and long route lifetime. The technique adapts a cross-layer framework where the ALW is integrated with application and physical layer. The proposed design allows applications to convey preferences to the ALW protocol to override the default path
selection mechanism. The results confirm improvement over AODV in terms of network load, route discovery time and link reliability
A probabilistic approach to reduce the route establishment overhead in AODV algorithm for manet
Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANETS) is a collection of wireless nodes without any
infrastructure support. The nodes in MANET can act as either router or source
and the control of the network is distributed among nodes. The nodes in MANETS
are highly mobile and it maintains dynamic interconnection between those mobile
nodes. MANTEs have been considered as isolated stand-alone network. This can
turn the dream of networking "at any time and at any where" into reality. The
main purpose of this paper is to study the issues in route discovery process in
AODV protocol for MANET. Flooding of route request message imposes major
concern in route establishment. This paper suggests a new approach to reduce
the routing overhead during the route discovery phase. By considering the
previous behaviour of the network, the new protocol reduces the unwanted
searches during route establishment processComment: International Journal of Distributed and Parallel Systems (IJDPS)

A Review of the Energy Efficient and Secure Multicast Routing Protocols for Mobile Ad hoc Networks
This paper presents a thorough survey of recent work addressing energy
efficient multicast routing protocols and secure multicast routing protocols in
Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs). There are so many issues and solutions which
witness the need of energy management and security in ad hoc wireless networks.
The objective of a multicast routing protocol for MANETs is to support the
propagation of data from a sender to all the receivers of a multicast group
while trying to use the available bandwidth efficiently in the presence of
frequent topology changes. Multicasting can improve the efficiency of the
wireless link when sending multiple copies of messages by exploiting the
inherent broadcast property of wireless transmission. Secure multicast routing
plays a significant role in MANETs. However, offering energy efficient and
secure multicast routing is a difficult and challenging task. In recent years,
various multicast routing protocols have been proposed for MANETs. These
protocols have distinguishing features and use different mechanismsComment: 15 page
