Abstract
Design of a power-aware protocol in mobile Ad hoc network (MANETs) and its evaluation requires good knowledge of mobile nodes power consumption behavior. Some studies have been reported in the literature to evaluate the performance of MANETs On-demand routing protocols under Transmission control protocol (TCP) and Constant bit rate (CBR) traffic type. However, little work has been done to evaluate this performance in terms of their power consumption behavior under different traffic types. This paper investigates and quantifies the impact of traffic type (TCP and CBR) on the power consumption, network throughput and end to end delay in MANET using OPNET Modeler 17.1 network simulator. Simulation results show that AODV/CBR recorded the lowest power consumption after 900 s of continuous packet transmission as compare to AODV/TCP, DSR/CBR and DSR/TCP. Also, AODV/CBR deliver the optimum performance in all other chosen metrics, thus a better choice for an efficient and power aware routing protocol in MANET.
