Abstract

Mobile ad hoc networks consist of mobile nodes that communicate without an infrastructure. It is a self configuring network connected by wireless links. All the nodes move around randomly, thus changing the network topology dynamically. The primary challenge in building a MANET is equipping each device to continuously maintain the information required to properly route the traffic. In this paper a routing algorithm based on Fuzzy Logic is proposed which is having low communication overhead and storage requirements. The proposed algorithm takes three input variables: signal power, mobility and delay. The absolute value of each parameter can take a large range at different points on the network.
