Abstract

Mobile ad hoc networks are wireless networks with no fixed infrastructure. They contain mobile nodes that communicate over multi-hop wireless links. However, nodes in MANETs are powered by limited supply of battery energy. Therefore, efficient energy conservation is of prime importance for the overall functioning of an ad hoc network. Many energy-aware routing protocols have been developed, which aim at achieving energy efficiency via routing procedures. Various mechanisms have been developed, which maximize the lifetime of nodes and in overall the network lifetime. In this paper, we study recent mechanisms and protocols proposed which provide energy conservation in mobile ad hoc networks.
