Reliable Data Delivery in Manet using Adaptive Demand Driven Routing Protocol and Semi Markov Process

Abstract

Reliable data delivery is an essential feature or element in the mobile adhoc network (MANET) and the devices often change their locations as they are not allocated any fixed infrastructure. In this paper, multicast routing protocols for military communications is proposed. Data security is a serious concern in military communications with MANET. This paper attempts to prove that data security can be achieved, by applying one of the most widely used algorithms, Adaptive demand driven routing (ADMR) protocol which provides routing done with rapid topological changes. For network survivability the node behavior model is devised by incorporating Semi Markov process. On the whole, the paper shows that reliable data delivery for MANET can be obtained by estimating the current performance of the network and by using Semi-Markov process when the forwarder node is isolated.
