A Survey On Load Balancing Appraoch In MANET Suman Lata

Seminar paper from the year 2010 in the subject Computer Science - Internet, New Technologies, , language: English, abstract: The formation of ad hoc wireless networks is stimulated by the requirement of a temporary communication infrastructure for quick communication with minimal configuration among a group of heterogeneous devices. Devices used for such applications could typically be enhanced personal digital assistants (PDAs), laptops with add-on wireless interface cards, or mobile devices with high processing power. Thus, this collaborative and distributed computing environment demands interoperatibilty among the devices. The additional features never come for free as they make the routing and other services more challenging and causes vulnerabilities in network services. Resource constrained, battery powered wireless mobile nodes not only have to self configure and self monitor them but also generates a very accommodating, trustworthy and affable environment. A classification of routing protocols and their brief description, based on their operating principles and underlying features is explained in this paper.
