Cost-Aware Reliable Routing Protocol for Wireless Ad hoc Networks

Two of the energy awareness based routing algorithms which are known as the reliable and minimum energy and cost-based routing (RMECR) and reliable minimum energy-based type of routing (RMER) are proposed for the wireless ad hoc networks. The RMECR deals with the important requirements of the wireless ad hoc networks and they are energy based efficiency in the system, reliability of the network and also increasing the network life time. It utilizes the energy factors like remaining and utilized energy values level in the nodes and also the quality of links in network to find the most energy efficient routes and also the reliable routes which increases the total lifetime of working network. RMER is the energy-efficient routing algorithm it searches the routes by minimizing the sum of energy required for the transfer of data packets originated from the source to the end destination. It will make easy to increase the life time of the wireless ad hoc networks and also ensures reliability. It also considers utilize of energy by the nodes of the network and limited retransmissions. By considering these two algorithms, data is transferred from source to destination by finding cost-aware, energy-efficient reliable routes which increases the life time of the network.
