Abstract

A main constraint in MANETs is the battery power constrained. Thus every effort is to be done towards reducing power consumption at each and every node in network. More specifically, Network node lifetime is one of the key design metric in MANETs. All host in the network performs the operations of a router, if any node goes down early due to lack of power, communication with on networks breaks down. Resulting, disconnection in network will be affected. In this paper, the routing protocols, reactive and proactive, in reference with the link lifetime in any network.Lifetime of a link can be defines as the amount of time the link will beavailable for communication. This study reveals properties, findings showing that lifetimes of the mobile node is of wear-out type property, rather than random failure.
Key words: Link Lifetimes, MANET, Connectivity,Routing Protocol.
