Topology Control Using Efficient Power Management

Abstract

Problem statement: Effective Topology control will improve the performance and the capacity of Mobile Ad-hoc networks by building reliable network structure. Approach: Power level is used as the basis for topology control since it reduces spatial interference while increasing the effective channel capacity and network lifetime. Results: In this study, we design a topology control using efficient power management algorithm using clustering. In this study, initially the cluster-head is selected based on the factors power level, stability and connectivity. Then, the connectivity of each node of the cluster with the cluster-head is checked. If the connectivity is less than a minimum connectivity threshold, then it is increased by increasing the power level. If the connectivity is higher than a maximum threshold, then the cluster-head reduces its power level. Conclusion/Recommendations: By simulation results, we show that the proposed topology control algorithm outperforms existing topology control algorithms in terms of by increased node life time and reduced power consumption.

CDTRB: QoS based Dynamic Topology Control for Ad-Hoc Network

“…To keep the topology unchanged without disconnecting any node within the network needs topology management scheme. Effective Topology control will improve the performance and the capacity of Mobile Ad-hoc networks by building reliable network structure [3]. In this paper we are focusing our research concern to both the above mentioned issues of QoS & topology control implementation of which expects the effective results in future.…”
