Description
Summary:As nodes often join or leave the network, the communication between the cloud and the MANET remains unreliable in Cloud-Assisted MANET. The event of connection failure in MANET presents several challenges to the network, in particular, the handover issue and high energy consumption during route re-establishment if a connection fails in D2D (device-to-device) communication networks. To address this problem of D2D mobile communication in 5G, we propose a Node Monitoring Agent Based Handover Mechanism (NMABHM). To improve the network's efficiency, we use the K-means algorithm for clustering and cluster head selection in Hybrid MANET and maintain a backup routing table based on a Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) to quickly recover the route. Additionally, a Node Monitoring Agent (NMA) is introduced to handle the handover issue if a node comes out of range during the communication phase. The NMABHM-based handover mechanism is proposed with group mobility over a cluster-based architecture involving agents. The results of the simulation indicate that, in terms of lower energy consumption and higher throughput, our proposed mechanism is more effective than the current routing mechanisms.
