Robust Ant Based Routing Protocol for MANET
Main Article Content
Abstract
Routing is one of the challenging issues in mobile ad hoc network (MANET) where the routing problem deals with methods to transport a packet across a network from source node to destination node. In this paper, we focuses on improve packet delivery ratio (PDR), better End-to-End Delay and control the overhead using the third party route reply, self local route repair with Link Expire Time (LET). This is based on AODV and inspired by the ant-colony optimization (ACO) used to solve complex optimization problems and utilizes a collection of mobile agents as “ants†to perform optimal routing activities.
