Description
Summary:A Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) is a temporary wireless network that configures itself as needed. Each MANET node has a finite number of resources and serves as both a node and a router at the same time. MANET nodes are mobile and move from one location to another. Because MANET nodes are dynamic, choosing an optimal node for data transfer is a difficult issue. Because packets must propagate in a multi-hop manner, they take a longer path and may endure a longer delay, causing them to become lost in the network. The network’s overall performance suffers as a result of the re-transmission of those lost packets. We propose a modified version of a nature-inspired algorithm called Petal Ant based Dynamic Routing (PADR) in this research study, which reconstructs data packets to traverse inside a given region and achieves minimal delay during data transmission. The PADR is simulated in Network Simulator (NS2) and compared against nature-inspired routing protocols like PAR and SARA, as well as traditional routing protocols like AODV.
