DLBMRP: Design of Load Balanced Multicast Routing Protocol for Wireless Mobile Ad-hoc Network

Abstract

A mobile ad-hoc network (MANETs) is a wireless network of mobile nodes without any fixed base-station or any centralized administration. When a node sends a data packet to more than one node at a time, it is called multicasting, multicast often used to utilize the network resources like channel bandwidth and node energy to improve the network efficiency. Multicast in MANETs have several challenges due to frequent changes in the network such as node mobility, reliability, limited resources, etc. The MANETs is widely used in several fields like emergency searches, rescues operation, and military battlefields where sharing of information is mandatory. These operations often require a rapid deployable and quick reconfigurable routing protocols. Since mobile nodes in wireless ad-hoc network have limited resources so an efficient multicast routing protocol is needed to reduce the wastage of resources. This paper proposes a traffic load balanced multicast routing protocol (LBMRP) in order to reduce the network overhead and increases the network life. In this scheme all mobile nodes are randomly classified into multi group (three groups) and create a tree for each group in order to achieve efficient data transmission. Simulation results shows that the proposed LBMRP scheme outperforms with some existing multicast routing protocols as multicast ad-hoc on-demand distance vector routing protocol, reliability of the multicast ad-hoc on demand distance vector and Parallel multiple nearly-disjoint trees multicast routing schemes.

Multi-Objective based Adaptive Meta-Heuristic Algorithm for Optimal Multicast Route Selection in Wireless Ad-Hoc Network

“…By presenting this approach, they have achieved better average packet delay and delivery ratio. Ajay Kumar Yadav and Sachin Tripathi [15] have presented Load Balanced Multicast Routing Protocol design in Wireless Mobile Ad-hoc Network. The authors aimed to reduce the wastage of the resources in MANET.…”

“…However, due to the rapid changes of node mobility, resources, and reliability, the performance of the multicast routing protocol may decrease. To solve this challenge, recent research works [8] [10] [15] have been presented and are reviewed in the previous section. Although that literature achieved better performance in terms of throughput, delivery ratio, and bandwidth utilization, the network may consume more energy and packet delivery time due to the number of transmissions in the routing path.…”

D-ETBMRPFS: Development of an Efficient Traffic Balanced Multicast Routing Protocol for Wireless Mobile Ad-hoc Network using Fibonacci Sequence approach

“…In source-rooted methodologies each source creates its single tree. Here, we have incorporates number of protocols that fall into the this category say: "Bandwidth-Efficient Multicast Routing Protocol (BEMRP)" [13], "Multicast Routing Protocol Based on Zone Routing (MZRP)" [14], "A location prediction based routing protocol (LPBR)" [15], and "Design of Load Balanced Multicast Routing Protocol for Wireless Mobile Ad-hoc Network (DLBMRP)" [16]". In shared-rooted approach all source share only a single tree that is governed by one or more special hubs.…”

Improvement and Implementation of an Adaptive Congestion DSR Routing Algorithm on Chip

“…Geetam Singh-Tomar et al (2014) considered load balancing adaptive congestion transmission in mobile ad hoc networks, with the low density and lifetime of the transmission path taken into consideration [5]. Ajay Kumar Yadav and others (2015) proposed a stable multicast transmission protocol flow capacity to reduce system overhead and increase the life of the entire network [6]. Sirajuddin et al (2013) proposed a TCP-based congestion control strategy in a mobile ad hoc network, using different congestion technologies, and using a dynamic algorithm ADV-CC (Ad-hoc Distance Vector with Congestion Control) congestion control scheme to improve network performance, but adding one difficulty is to propose a cross-layer adaptive transmission method that minimizes network performance congestion based on performance indicators and avoids data packet loss in the network [7].…”
