Load Balancing in Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks: A Review
Main Article Content
Abstract
Mobile Ad Hoc Network are wireless network consisting of a collection of mobile nodes with no fixed infrastructure due to their
decentralization, self-configuring add dynamic nature MANET offer many advantages and are easy to install. But with this dynamic topology,
mobile adhoc network have some challenges like design of an efficient routing protocol and controlling the congestion, hence balancing the load
in MANET is important since nodes with high load will deplete their batteries quickly, thereby increasing the probability disconnecting or
partitioning. This paper discusses the various load metrics and summarizes the principals behind several existing load balancing adhoc routing
protocols.
