Abstract

Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) is the self organizing collection of mobile nodes. The communication in MANET is done via a wireless media. Ad hoc wireless networks have massive commercial and military potential because of their mobility support. Due to demanding real time multimedia applications, Quality of Services (QoS) support in such infrastructure less networks have become essential. QoS routing in mobile Ad-Hoc networks is challenging due to rapid change in network topology. Consequently, the available state information for routing is inherently imprecise. QoS routing may suffer badly due to several factors including radio interference on available bandwidth, and inefficient flooding of information to the adjacent nodes. As a result the performance of the network degrades substantially. This paper aims at the solution for energy efficient QoS routing by best utilization of network resources such as energy and bandwidth. A comparative study shows that despite the overhead due to QoS management, this solution performs better than classical OLSR protocol in terms of QoS and efficient utilization of energy.
